Not so much a pig or pigs, more akin to two huge elephants!

Dear Mr Loxley
As a Gainsborian I loved this photo and have sent to 4 friends and family with full acknowledgement. Hope this is OK. Please let me know.
Wow This is wonderful, must get some of my piccies onto this site. Adore this Pig
Weird cloud formation… They look like fumes from a burning village or something… :D
Is that Pig Latin?
It’s like one of those huge Star Wars battlefield robots, but in a pig sort of way.
Yes Kev it certainly is a cloud and in the right set of circumstances could even spawn a tornado.
Is this a cloud? It looks more like fumes from a factory.
WOW… this is a real pig!!!
