EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Baz Ratner, we are transported to the Mpala research centre in Laikipia County, Kenya. The image showcases the sheer beauty and grace of a Reticulated giraffe as it stands alone amidst the vast savannah plain. With its long neck stretched towards the camera, this curious wild animal appears to be looking directly at us. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of the giraffe's patterned coat and gentle eyes. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies and wisps of white clouds, we can see how seamlessly this majestic creature blends into its natural environment. The depth of field technique employed by Ratner adds an artistic touch to the photo. While the giraffe remains sharply focused in the foreground, elements such as grasses, shrubs, and trees gradually fade into soft out-of-focus backgrounds. This creative use of depth highlights not only the individual beauty of this African national treasure but also emphasizes its harmonious connection with nature. As we admire this stunning print captured on January 7th, 2018, let it serve as a reminder of our responsibility to protect these magnificent creatures and their habitats for generations to come.
