A shot that leaves you speechless, yearning for the simple and inescapable beauty of mother South Africa. The Giraffe also symbolizes beauty, grace, intelligence, elegance and dignity — holding his head up high, just like a special friend of mine for whom this photo and post is dedicated.

I took this shot while on Safari there last week, following the incredibly successful launch of Banking on Our Future, South Africa.

Onward with HOPE
