Ha, those kids and their piercings nowadays !

Well these are simply amazing images Greg. The pine needles seem to be the appropriate complementing environment to their coats. Your low POV really makes these intimate. The black with brilliant spines is really dynamic, great work on the 'sharpness'
Vote worthy buddy, excellent series!

Karl - Thanks Bud ! Really appreciate it. Face piercing that's good hahaha. Focusing was a challenge. To me it looks like they just came from the hair salon or should I say quill salon, they are all fluffed up.

Thanks Jim - I know, I'd swear he was just groomed. I actually googled something like do porcupines fluff their quills during mating season to attract a mate. And all of the responses were no they don't. Thanks again I truly appreciate it.
