An utterly delightful shot. The moment of momentum going over a fence in the exuberance of youth. The insignificance of our acts to the larger world, like Chinese painting or The Hudson River School, although done in a distinctly American way, here the simple pig. The marvelous geometric progression into the action and balance.
Great shot. I tried to bring out the elements I mentioned above, through cropping, burning and dodging, and sharpening.
Bob, thank you very much for your generous praise. Your critiques are always interesting and thought-provoking. And I really like what you did with the image. I have a long way to go to feel comfortable with photo editing tools. There seems to be a lot of overlap and I end up going around in circles trying to get the light/dark sorted out. But I'll keep at it!
