Upside down! (large format) - a photo on Flickriver

            At sunset, in Botswana, all animals go looking for some water to drink.

This giraffe was terribly scared, because there were some lions on the other side of the pond and she knew she's blind while drinking (due to blood pressure). 

The light was going darker and darker and the giraffe ended up to being only visible in the water reflection.

This shot by Nikon D800 + Nikkor 24/70 f/2.8 @ 24mm 1/15s f/4 ISO 100

Taken in: Botswana / North-West / Sepupa (show map)

Taken on: June 8, 2017
