Image works for me...make it look very tiny in a big bad world...hard to believe it will grow to be the tallest in that world...very well composed and exposed..TFS

[Gary Hamilton]

Very nice environmental portrait--a little one in a big, dangerous world. Is it me or could the image use a little CW rotation? There appears to be a right to left slope behind him but the giraffe seems to be leaning left a bit. In any event, another beautiful capture, Harshad.

[Sid Garige]

Excellent composition Harshad. Just wondering if you got any picture of this guy with his parent. I just want to see how tall he is.

[Robert Amoruso]

Harshad,

You composition works very well showing the diminutive size of the infant. The numerous mounds add interest and carry the theme of the habitat (including the large in focus mound in the FG) into the BG. I agree on the CW rotation.

[Sid Garige]

From Wiki, average height of new born are around 5 to 6 feet and they grow up to 18 feet in 4 years.
Dam, they should be drinking horlicks everyday Harshad.:)

Harshad - Nice environmental image.

TFS,

This is a beauty, looking at it again I might be tempted to take a little from the top, just below the tree line.

Harshad, I like the way you have presented this. The size scale adds a lot to the image. Nicely done.

[Hilary Hann]

Very nice image Harshad. Always like the environmental images. Agree with a slight rotation.

[Santosh Tigga Saligram]

Beautiful subject and composition.

Really like the comp. Show the expanse of the environment.
