 Zoo infrared. Shot in black and white.
Two levels adjustment layers- one to get the close giraffe more balanced lightwise since it was in shadow, the second for the overall photo. Minor adjustment in Selective Colors to change the tint and some dodge/ burn (only 2-3%).
Resize and smart sharpen.

I agree that the IR really allows the animals to contrast against the foliage, great effect.

Wow - must try to get to the zoo sometime this month. :) I like how infrared here offers up a better-presented foreground - in regular color or even regular black and white, the background trees might have been too dark to allow the giraffe to stand out so well.
