ditto. I love the structure of the foreground moving through to the background - in focus white, OOF white, OOF grey/green. It is simple and frames the porker well.

Lovely image, full of character. Would like to see a bit more of the eyes but maybe that is just the size of reproduction. Certainly a lot more handsome fella than the porkers on the local farms.
