A giraffe I shot in a the Polokwane Nature Reserve about 90km from where I live. It's a very small nature reserve almost in the city of Polokwane but has a lot of different animals. This day we saw a lot of these long neck, sable, oryx, warthogs, zebra, duikers, steenbok, ostriches, kudu, red heartbeast and lots of different birds.

Beautiful Marietha. I just got done commenting on your mom's wonderful elephant image and now I get to see this fantastic one. I feel like i'm in africa and that is fine by me.
I just got done watching a movie also with Richard Harris that was filmed in Afica about the lions and elephants. I feel like i have been blessed with all this nature and just love it. Faved as well as I did you mom's. Thank you so much for sharing your world with us.

Great capture of the giraffe. I wonder if he has to worry about any predators where he is? Focus and colors are spot on.

Wonderful capture of this pretty giraffe, Marietha. I much prefer the way you get to see them than the way we get to see these beautiful animals, which is behind fencing in a zoo. What a wonderful opportunity it is to be able to get closer to them in their natural habitats.
