Wonderful color and action captured and while I would prefer the OOf brown in the BG did not cut the head in half it really does not distract from the image.

Alan bow to you on this one. Am i dreaming ? cant even think in my dreams to get such image over here :) absolute magic bro.
A glorious image: colorful, interesting, detailed. Love it!
I am fine with the tan band as it is so suffused. Killer pose and I love that black U-shape under the chin. Techs and framing perfect. AIA I love it.
