    What a hoot. Looks to be a pot-bellied breed. :D Nice job with this shot.... I particularly like the DOF approach you chose.

    I know it's not your style, Tony, to embellish rust very much. But the " raw material " you have here cries out for the RUST JUNKIE treatment. Give me 10 minutes with that swine and I'd have enough abstracts to keep me busy for a month.

    Take care,

    Jeez, Tom, I processed that image excessively (for me) compared
    to what I usually do.

    Tell you what, here's a link to the RAW (.dng) file:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/ug3tfaj2aza4u73/2014-01-12-55.dng
    and here's an unedited, uncropped .jpg from the RAW in case you
    can't work with .dng files.

    If you want to, do the full RUST JUNKIE treatment on it and post your
    result here. Put your special lipstick on the pig.

    Anyone else who wants to play is welcome to do so.

    Gee, Tony. After seeing the original file, I've got to admit that you did indeed step out with some pretty aggressive PP work on these pigs. You did well....I'm proud of you. If I can figure out how to work with your file, I'll still try and go for an abstract or two derived from the foreground pig....possibly something from around the ear, maybe the nose, or even the belly area. Again, though, I'm impressed with your initial work. We may turn you into a full-blown JUNKIE yet.

    No, this little piggy went to market. A flea market.
