The mother Giraffe was being very affectionate and rubbing her face on the young giraffe. I just kept snapping photos until I got this one, where they looked like they were sharing a special moment together.

Wow, those spots really make it hard to make sense of them. I thought it was AI generated for a minute.

I believe this is a picture which got improved with AI, e.g. higher resolution / sharpening / deblur.

If it did, it was not on purpose. I took it from a Pixel 7, uploaded to imgur, then posted directly here. No intentional editing outside of what my phone may have done automatically without telling me.

Yeah, some phones do that especially when using zoom. You may find more information here.
