I would greatly value people's comments and opinions on this shot please.

Many thanks.

Nice shot, it's just a shame you didn't get all of the three heads in the composition.

I did get all three heads, but there was a trotter of another piglet in the way so had to crop it out.

Lovely image

I rather like that, the tight crop gives the snuggled together feel some emphasis, might stand a little sharpen? Or do my glasses need cleaning? The wood chip looks more in focus than the piglets...

I have applied a fairly heavy amount of sharpening to the image in selective places but still couldn't get it sharp enough. It was a poor light shot so had to shoot wide open, hence the shallowish DOF.

Time for a re-shoot

Of course if you try that, they'll all run around like little lunatics

Will diazepan work on pigs? ;-)

That's one big bacon sandwich right there...

This is a fun image...and certainly not the normal subjects for a post on this forum. I took the liberty of upping the contrast and brightness a bit, which, IMHO, often helps give the illusion of greater sharpness without introducing halos or other artifacts. As usual, it won't be to everyone's taste.

I'm glad you found it fun. It wasn't meant to be a technically astounding image, but more one that was well composed but with that 'ahh' factor.
