Awesome shot! How cool!! I knew giraffes had long tongues, but that's WAAAY out there - lol. Nice DOF and lighting too (although not crazy about the background). Great job.

Nice composition. Color seems a little off to me though.

Good idea, but way overexposed, do some more post processing and try again.

Comment by metoecus:
As presented here, this image seems to have crossed the border between high-key and overexposed. Since there is still a fair amount of shadow detail, I suspect that you could bring back a lot of the tonal range by setting your white/black points and reducing the contrast. The harsh shadow cast by the guy's profile suggests that this scene was primarily lit by a single bright light just above the camera. If you intended this photo to look high-key, using a reflector to soften the edges of that shadow would have made this look more professional.

I think I get the over-exposure, and this is a good portrait. However I see more of a "love" story in this than "family" - just my impression. I still give it a six for having something unique.
