Photographer’s Note
This is one of four pigs which live in the Rundle Mall. His name is Oliver. His friends (not shown here) are Truffles, Augusta and Horatio. The pigs were named by a public poll and are a highlight of Rundle Mall. The sculptures were commissioned by the City of Adelaide in 1999, and created by Marguerite Derricourt. The pigs are popular with both tourists and children visiting the mall.
This shot was taken in moderate late morning light.

Hello Mark,
Nice portrait of the pig, this one is atleast alive (sort of) I took a portrait of a pig at Harndorff...that pig was very dead...on a spit.
The DoF is quite good and the exposure is just right.
Thanks for sharing
Regards
Kamran
