I would have preferred a lower POV to this shot, as per a comment I made to Sanjeev's shot, however as soon as the passenger door opened Mr Warthog was more alert and so avoiding any more disturbance to him and the rest of his foraging family I chose to shoot from the footwell, not ideal. Taken mid morning so not ideal light and one small water highlight reflection removed in the BKG. The more you watch these characters the more you realise they are good fun, love the way they forage on their elbows.
