Great action! I also like the color a lot. If I were to nit at all I would ask for a bit more head room.

Hi Susan,
I really like these guys and you've got tow great poses captured in this image. Colors look good along with some good detail. Don't know if my head is crooked or not but I see a need for a tiny CW rotation.
