Photo: Giraffe In Motion

It took me a while, looking at this photo just now, to notice the evidence of human intention behind the African Savannah at the Phoenix Zoo - I believe that wire fence, between the giraffe and the palm trees, is it. Just another reflection of how the camera's eye can trick, depending on where it's pointed - 180 degrees away from this is the bustle of the zoo, and about fifty people or so jostling for position to get pictures of the giraffes as they trundle toward their elevated foodbox. It was feeding time, you see.
