Caption: "What I first noticed about Mr. Sakugawa was that he had huge hands. For the photo, Mr. Sakugawa, who runs a pig farm, led me into a building on his property and chased down a piglet. He knew the animals very well, and even taught me that there was a way of holding the pig to calm it down." -- Brian Sato
