I stretch my palm out to the dazzling creature, the creature had big beautiful eyes. Blotched in spots, like raindrops on a window. The creature was also tall, taller than anything I had ever seen.
That was when a door was opened upon me.
It was summer. Clothes soaked with sweat sticking to out skin as we enjoy the summer weather. It was a summer like any other. A summer I would spent with my Aunt. As tall and beautiful as she was, she was also strict. Making sure nothing we did was wrong.
The next morning, my Aunt surprised us with a visit to the zoo. The zoo was magnificent, you could see all the different animals in one enclosed area.
We saw many interesting things, but one animal stood out from the rest. Kinda like a rose in a tulip garden. It contrasted.
"What kind of animal is that," I ask my Aunt curiously
My Aunt replied in a gentle voice"Those are giraffes, aren't they beautiful?,
I nod in agreement,
This was the first time I wanted to save this moment. A camera was the perfect solution. At a young age I wanted to embrace the beauty of nature through photography. I wanted to use my talent to capture the essence of beauty for the years to come.
