A journey of Thornicroft’s giraffe moving through. Possibly - for me at least - the toughest animal to take a photograph of.

Here, I like the "secrecy" that I went with. Just a classic frame-in-a-frame, but it works... I think.

Cell phones play such an important role on safaris nowadays, and they often lend themselves to heated debate - with some people bringing up ideals or portraying a sense of higher morality for “doing less” with their phones.

Personally, as a photographer, I feel the need for people to share their experiences is a beautiful human trait. Of course, like everything, balance is key. But the fact that people nowadays can share their experiences so easily and with such clarity is quite beautiful. I like it. ♥️
