    Really nice image Ken..Good sharp detail and good light...I like the different colours in the BG and the exposure is spot on.

    Super pose and IQ. The natural colours and exposure is nailed and the bg is a killer !!

    I like images with some action Ken, well done. Good exposure with nice natural colours and great background.
