A mischievous giraffe sticks his long neck in as it it appears to photobomb the perfect photograph. The incredible moment was photographed by photography duo JJ Alcalay & Brigitte Marcon at Etosha National Park in Namibia, Africa<br /> <br /> 64 year old Brigitte Macron from Montmeyran, France said “It looks like this giraffe is photobombing another giraffe’s image, when infant it was taken during the midst of a necking session. This is when young adult males fight to assert dominance over each other.” <br /> <br /> “This is always a very quick encounter so I’m very pleased to have taken this image.” <br /> <br /> Please byline: JJ Alcalay & B Marcon/Naturagency/Solent News<br /> <br /> © JJ Alcalay & B Marcon/Naturagency/Solent News & Photo Agency<br /> UK +44 (0) 2380 458800<br /> <br /> The image looks comical to us as it looks like a giraffe is photobombing the image of another giraffe, but these are two young male adults giraffes during a necking session.
