As the first mate on a 118-foot motor yacht, Vince Lauro has the opportunity to continuously travel across the Caribbean. This photograph was taken near a small key famous for the “swimming pigs.” A colony of pigs lives on the key, and they often swim near visiting boats. To capture this clear image Lauro said, “I had to lure this pig into an undisturbed area with its favourite food: fresh watermelon.”
