I love that pig shot! For some reason it really caught my attention when I got to it. There I was, looking at your train shots and all of a sudden I thought there were mini pigs too!

I just noticed the ears on those guys! One's is flopping up and the other down. Very cute!

Great shots, I too love the shot of the pigs racing, they were pretty into it. The last shot is very nice too.
Looking forward to seeing more.
