One of the reasons I like traveling to Africa during rainy season, is skies like this. Quite often the sky gets very dark due to an approaching storm, but the sun is still shining bright on the foreground subject. These reticulated giraffes were getting their fill of thorny bushes, seemingly unconcerned with the drama building behind them. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 1250, f/5.6 at 1/3200th of a second.

WOW, what a shot!
WOW, what a shot!
God created amazing creatures and you capture them so beautifully on film!
This just makes me smile. Giraffes are so beautiful, graceful, and charming to see. The black storm approaching offers a perfect portrait background.
