Cute! looks like a sub-adult . I like the puffs of dust around it's feet. There are puffs in front too, so it looks like this fellow was in a line of javalinas ?

Thanks Sandy. I considered cloning out the shadow and dust puffs from the proceeding javelina, but decided they added to the image of this tail-end charlie.

David ..love this frame purely for the color palette across the frame. Love light and a fine capture.

David: I like the rim lighting that the back lighting has created. I also like the dust that the javelina's feet are raising. My only suggestion would be to check the white balance which seems strongly bluish as is seen by the blue tones in the ground. Richard

The puffs of dust in front add a nice story line that is not obvious at first, by telling the viewer that this javelina is not the leader of the pack! Excellent active pose and pleasing rim lighting.
