    Excellent timing, composition, exposure control and timing. All in all a great Image. Wish female's head is up straight.

    Welcome, Chas! It's good to see you on the forums. You captured an incredible interaction, well exposed and nicely composed. I'm glad that you managed to keep one eye from both of your subjects visible.
