Pic of The Day: Wart Hogs

[zippyjuan]

My parents were visiting this week so of course one of the places we had to go was the San Diego Zoo. Infrared pics of a few wart hogs. I did add some blur to portions of the pictures (except for the animals). Looks more like they could have been taken with an older camera. Shot in black and white and given a little tint in Photoshop.

your depth of field is kinda funky. ;) makes them look like miniatures hog dioramas.
reminds me of the work of Olivo Barbieri (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivo_Barbieri), who used tilt-shift lenses to create a similar effect with much large scenes.
