Back to clarify my comment, especially in light of Ubique's. I love every aspect of this, except at the very bottom of the frame where the tree appears to grow out of the giraffe. I really like the inclusion of the rest of it (and I concede it would look pretty silly without the bottom..) and love the way the giraffe's head appears above the leaves. I hadn't consciously considered that the foreground tree/bush, acted as an echo of the form of the animal, but I appreciate the photo all the more for having that connection pointed out. Edit: Deserved a much higher finish tan this

This was up in my top three - a photo that really gives the viewer not just a visual representation , but more importantly a feel for the scene.

Absolutely gorgeous photo - the branch in front of the giraffe bothers me a little, but hey, I can live with that :)

Winner, winner, turtle dinner! In awe of this - haven't been through the rest yet, but this must be the Blue.
