Giraffe! Never really thought of giraffes as beautiful, but you make me think otherwise. Great job on the photo! The giraffe really pops against the green bkg. Excellent choice of dof, great clarity. Wouldnt change anything.

Such a face. You must of been up on something tall as he/she was. Neat shot. The ear on the right makes this all the funnier!! Cute shot. I think this is beauty, or it is to me. I'd like to see you adjust levels some and maybe burn the face to make this pop! Kool animal.

I'm a Toys "R" Us kid!

Looks just like my mother in law. LOL.
Not sure composition is at its best, try a crop just below the horns, puts the eyes less central
detail / colour great. love it

Slightly overexposed....for example, the ear on the left side of the head blends into the bokeh in the background. Love the expression on his face. Well done. 7

This is such a gorgeous image with excellent composition and bokeh. I think this photo would look better if you darkened it a bit, but it's very nice as is.
