Giraffe in Velvia

Hi folks another image from same location as the Elephants just opposite the clearing on the edge of the water filled pan.Etosha NP.

Hope you like it better as the ´messed´ up ellies .

Canon EOS 1D MK IV
EF 500 IS L
Window bracket + Gitzo fluid Head

F 9 ; Iso 320 ; 1/2000 sec

Processed with Photo Ninja and PS CC ; had to add canvas to LHS and Top for leveling and a wider crop .

Thanks for watching and commenting to my previous thread.

C&C welcome, cheers Andreas

Excellent image Andreas! I like the tongue sticking out and rich colours.

The reds really appeal to me Andreas, so does the golden sun on the RHS- lovely image, like the Velvia touch, well done!

Kind regards,

Now I am going to delete my giraffe silhouette. Top class lighting, exposure and mood. :5

I really love this one Andreas. Perfect !

Hi Andreas - Beautiful silhouette with deep sunset colors. Well done! I'm curious if you used sharpen edges on the giraffe?

TFS,
Rachel

Hi Andreas

Beautiful colours..! Love this. I think little things like the rim lit legs and sparklie grass tops LLC are important contributors in this sort of image also.. well for me anyway..

regards

DON

nice silhouette,like the colors,and tongue sticking out,thats different.

Thanks to all of you who gave feedback to this image , glad you like it.

Morkel - no need for throwing away , follow Steve and try different , you will not get the colors or the mood , but you will get something .............
Rachel - never use that filter

Thanks again , Andreas

Very nice sunset colour here Andreas, with the raspberry a nice bonus.:t3
