Has It Stopped Yet?

Seven Giraffe hiding from the rain! This image was taken at the fabulous Longleat Safari Park, a few moments before this image was captured these Giraffe were happily walking around the massive enclosures that they reside in. Out of nowhere the sky becomes overcast with dark, heavy clouds that stretch across the horizon, creating a gloomy and somber atmosphere and the dreaded persistent rainfall began.

As everyone began running for shelter including my family! I stayed out to watch the response from the Giraffes . Within seconds the Giraffes had become very despondent with the rain and legged it back to this shelter. They nearly all turned around and poked their heads out off the shelter as if they were watching and waiting for it to stop! Its at this point I clicked the shutter on the Hasselblad and ran for cover myself.

Shot using my trusted Hasselblad 500 C/M medium format camera using Ilford Hp5 film. The film is then hand developed by me in my home Darkroom to meet my own exact requirements. Developing film and exposing film can be a dark art to achieve the best negatives to print from.
