When I saw the thumbnail I thought I was looking at a comical drawing of a giraffe drinking from a toilet.
Then I click on it and it's the most depressing giraffe picture I've seen in my life.

Very emotional picture, the color adds to the depressive tone and the plain dirty look of the room around the giraffe shows the capitivity. The tameness and bent neck is very strong too. Great shot!

ja parece uma etenidade desde que fui ao zoo d lisboa pla ultima vez... heh!
axo engraçado o pekeno detalhe algo, cm lhe chamaria uma das mias profs: "pervertido" hiper discreto.... da falha n parede mesmo naquela zona da girafa..... mto sugestivo d facto LOL!
sΓ³ s deve notar kdo s esta virado pa isso
anyway, gosto d composição d foto... gosto d maneira como os baixos contrastes fazem com que a girafa quase que derreta no resto da imagem... bravo!
eu nΓ£o penso o mesmo que tu sobre zoos, nΓ£o me sinto assim tΓ£o deprimida quando la vou... mas cada um a sua op e nΓ£o vai ser isso que me vai impedir de comentar a foto...
e enfim.... Γ© uma girafa! adoro girafas!!!
*leo
ps: caramba, acho que nc escrevi tt num comment, deve ter sido o entusiasmo d ser d portugali....!! sorry s t xateei o juizo JJ-

I know everyone else faved this, but damn it Ive been watching you forever and this is just so grand.. I can easily see this framed in someones house. The girrafe bending over and the cage above. Truly perfect. Youve come so far and I am soooooooo happy for you.

such an great shot, but such a sad moment... to think she (he?) will never feel the warm red dirt or cool clear breeze of the african savannah again... so disheartening

It's a baby giraffe so she was probably born in captivity.. :S
