Great find! Hilarious really. You'd think you would see it more often. I mean how heavy that head and neck must be.

I like the shot, but I don't like the title. I don't need to be told if it is extraordinary or not, that's the decision the voters make, I feel like I'm being solicited by that statement, as well as the one at the beggining. If I never see it, why am I seeing a picture of it. Yes, I never see it in real life, but I've never seen giraffe in real life either (haven't visited Africa, or a zoo with them in it yet).

The shot itself is a bit extraordinary, kindof cute, kind of humorous. Too bad about clipping the ear.

I don't like the overexposed background, but the subject is very cute.

Definitly unique. Could use a little levels to darken it, but cool shot.

I'm not sure if this is really extraordinary. It's a nice shot of the giraffe. I'd kind of like to see it at a 3/4 view so that more of its neck was in view.

Great capture, too bad about the crop and the washed out background. 7

an interesting shot but kinda colorless. the crop is a little off on the left side. I think more of a left angle to show more of the neck would have done a little better. Very good clarity.

That's realy something I have never seen. And Giraffes look so sweet.
