This one from my Polish trip last year, from the huge enclosure in Bielowieza Nat park. There is an area where there are a few wild boar and I took a shine to this one and waited untill she was in a good position to have her portrait taken.
Have been rather busy with improving my house and getting the hides going again, so not had much time for posting for a few weeks.

Very nice indeed Paula
I'm always wanting to do a close-up on the eyes on one of these great creatures - bit 'dodgier' than a swan, and that was bad enough
Nice one

Hi Paula,
This is superb! If cropped then give a tadge more room at the top as the ear is ever so slightly clipped - very minor though!

You certainly made a pig's ear of this one, in the nicest possible way of course . Great shot, only improved by seeing more of its tusk IMHO. Excellent.

Like that Paula, especially the mud around its snout. It tells what they are all about. Eric

A fine, well composed close up.
