From the artist:
"When you spend time in the Kenyan bush, there’s a lot to see - yet there’s nothing more out of this world than spotting a giraffe’s graceful frame in the distance moving swiftly along the plains in the signature gait of these incredible animals.
On my most recent trip to Kenya, I wanted to capture the elegance of the giraffe’s silhouette while, at the same time, highlighting the details that make them one of the most peculiarly beautiful animals in the world.
With a local Maasai stationed at a hilltop, we waited for word that a giraffe was about to cross the sunbaked, minimal expanse of Earth bordering Amboseli. Hours went by, then days - but we stayed vigilant until it all paid off with this moment. I took hundreds of images of giraffes, but this one was the clear winner as the long vertical lines create a stark contrast from the crisp break of the horizon, while the minimal backdrop allows the frenetic rhythm of the giraffe’s movement to shine."
