Hi Morkel - What a great scene and special interaction. Dof, sharpness and colors all work great. The other giraffes in the bg really add to the scene for me. If it were mine I would give the main subjects a little more pop. What's the white speck that the male appears to be looking at? Looking forward to seeing more from your trip.
TFS,
Rachel

A butterfly - loads of them spawned after the first rains of summer.

very nice, a very natural image, maybe a bit more contrast. Cool about the butterfly.

Welcome back 
Love the pose and lighting here Morkel, although not having been to KTP and seen giraffe, they do appear a little flat here as well? An easy fix of course.

They are generally quite light and lacking in apparent contrast compared to other regions, this "journey" in particular (something I noted as we pulled into the sighting).
Will play around, nevertheless...

That's interesting Morkel, certainly quite different and most unusual toning.

Hi Morkel welcome back great to hear you had a good time with your wife
.
Very nice scene from the landscape POV and the two giraffes cuddling is adding a lot to it. Very nice colors and tones overall , but i would expect more brightness , looking at the sun angle . Cannot forget the brutal light at that time of the day .
The giraffes do look good to me .

Hi Morkel, a very nice scene of the two giraffes. Love the butterfly. When I saw it this morning thought it is a white bird in the distance, than was thinking, there are not gulls around :)
I as well would add a tad pop to the giraffes, but when they look like that in this region I wouldn t.
have a great eve

Love the interaction and the butterfly. In a perfect world, the other giraffes wouldn't be facing/walking away. Not much you can do about that in the split second you had to capture the great interaction though.
