Nice one Linda, and well titled. I think we have the exact same lens. I just love it. I'm so happy this saavy saleswoman suggested it to me.
Zoos are great places for photo ops...sometimes it just doesn't happen to be of animals! :)
Happy Thanksgiving to you to. :)

I like your giraffe. She got shy in front of the camera, right?
Hehehe, just kidding. I think this is a very nice abstract, beautifully composed in diagonal and it has some gorgeous colours too. One of the subjects I particularly like to photograph. Good work!

Hi Linda
Beautiful colours and great composition Linda. I can relate to your giraffe; I had a giraffe pattern on my arm a couple of years ago after the cast was removed, once my broken bones had healed. A lot of people couldn't see it...Well seen, great work as usual ;-)

Great piece of artwork, like the idea to
- shorter version of the joke -
A man walked into a bar with a giraffe
and strarted a drinking contest with the giraffe
After 100 pints the giraffe collapsed on the floor, the tables and chairs went flying
The man then started to leave the bar
The barkeeper said, you can't leave that lying there.
The man said it's not a lion it's a giraffe
