Description
We have arrived safely in New Hampshire. An old post that I tweaked the colors a bit
This is my wife, Josephine, trying to get a kiss from a Reticulated Giraffe at the Miami Zoo. If I had waited a few seconds, I could have posted this in the HUMOR genre because as soon as I snapped this shot, the Giraffe stuck out his 15 inch tongue and she jumped back a few feet.
Photo taken with my old Minolta.

Hilarious! 15" tongues are a bit much for a kiss!

Fun shot. I've found that when shooting people and critters sometime continuous shutter comes in handy.

A super fun shot especially the younger one looking on and taking it all in. Would love to have seen what you missed. Great to see Jo Dana.

When I saw for the very first time a giraffe tongue, I got scared. I thought she caught a snake or something! Excellent shot, Dana!
