EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic African Porcupine (Hystrix cristata) in all its glory. Standing proudly against a pristine white background, this side view of the porcupine showcases its unique anatomy and natural defense mechanisms. The studio shot allows for intricate details to be highlighted, from the spines that cover its body to the distinct profile of this remarkable creature. As one of nature's herbivores, the African Porcupine is known for its self-defense tactics. Its spiky quills serve as an effective deterrent against potential predators, making it a force to be reckoned with in the animal kingdom. This image perfectly encapsulates these fascinating features that make this species stand out among rodents. Photographer Jerry Young has skillfully captured every aspect of this magnificent creature in stunning detail. The horizontal composition adds depth and perspective to the photograph, allowing viewers to appreciate every nuance of the porcupine's form. In this color image, we are presented with a rare opportunity to witness wildlife up close and personal. With nobody else present in the frame, our focus remains solely on this incredible African Porcupine and its natural beauty. This extraordinary print by Universal Images Group (UIG) serves as a testament to both Jerry Young's talent behind the lens and nature's awe-inspiring creations.
