Pet Pig
previous / nextI'm sorry but I didn't catch your name?
I shot this pet pig at Hoffman Park as we were going back to the car on the Saturday before Mother's Day. She was near the parking area happily eating dandelions, which I'm told are like crack to her, but she stopped for a moment to give me a smile while I took her photo. I love pig snouts. They make me smile.

I love that face and how you bring our attention to it through the framing and shallow DOF.
ha ha, I felt a little bit watched when I opened your blog. Superb
Very nice portrait :) Great view!
perfect shot!
very funny and clever use of shallow dof
Awesome....sooo cute !
Very nice portrait of my brother.. :P
Lovely capture! Nice and shallow DOF; and nice framing.
When I was a kid, I had an uncle who looked just like this. lol He gave you a nice pose. :)
This is the best I have seen this week. I think pigs are the coolest. I want one but I can't get straight answers from owners about what they are really like. So... No pig for me
A portrait very expréssif, all my congratulations!
Congrats. I am less used to pigs than you, I would not have seen this sympathy in her smile. Did you let her kiss you??
Now I feel guilty for having a Ham sandwich earlier!! What a cute face and great shot.
Blimey, that's one heck of a snout lol! Fantastic DOF, works fantastically well.
eheheheh! Is it possible to say that a pet pig is lovely??? I think this is right the case... (-:
She's cute. I guess that a dandelion eating pig could come in handy for yard work! :-)
OMG just precious! How did you get him to smile? 'Say .. OINK':)
Can't say I'm a lover of pig snouts, but it is a cool photo.
Well Laurie - I have to admit that I am not a fan of pigs but this one certainly is nicely done and it does make you smile. Wonderful DOF!
Talk about a perfect smile....Love this happy piggy.
Gotta love all that ugliness! :-)
