    The composition, colors and concept are great.

    However, I have to mention that the photo is really blurred. That's probably because of a shutter speed that is too slow. If the pig(s) moved, your speed of 1/60 might not have stopped the action; anything slower than 1/200 in this situation is asking for trouble. If you were not using a lens with image stabilization activated or a tripod, your 85mm focal length also would have made the shutter speed too slow to reliably hold the camera still enough. It's also possible though less likely that you focused improperly.

    While I like the shot, I will have to agree with Mike on the lack of sharpness in the shot.

    I'm also quite happy that we viewers don't have to deal with the smell that you would have encountered taking this shot...
