Giraffe Head Above Fluffy Clouds

A centered giraffe head rising from a bank of thick, fluffy white clouds, neck visible down into the mist and the face turned gently toward the viewer with a calm expression. The image reads as an editorial animal portrait photograph with subtle photo-manipulation to place the subject among the clouds. The setting is a clear pale teal sky with smooth gradient shifts of blue-green and soft atmospheric haze at the edges. Cloud textures are voluminous and tactile with smooth rim lighting and soft internal shadows to convey depth and weight. Skin and fur on the giraffe are natural in tone with warm amber highlights on the ossicones and muzzle and clean, matte patches along the neck. Overall light is soft-key and diffused so the face has gentle separation and small catchlights in the eyes. Focus is shallow so the giraffe face is crisp and the surrounding cloud layers recede softly. Composition is tight and centered with generous negative space above for wallpaper framing. Surfaces are clean and unlettered with no typography, and small abstract micro-details on the clouds add realism without visual noise. Maintain a serene, whimsical mood with pastel teal and warm amber color accents throughout.
