Definitely a unique angle of view....I do think this would have more impact if you had a bit more head turn from the Giraffe.

Ronald,
As Kurt has said a very unusual angle, I think it works very well :toast: :toast: :toast:

Yes, this is an interesting perspective with excellent detail on the head and bush. I find the V of the tail on the bottom of the frame is too much of an "eye puller" and think even a slight bottom crop would help somewhat. Bulk of that much butt in the frame makes it feel a touch heavy too. Thumbs up to you for trying a different viewpoint.
