    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.

    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.

    Alan, I am sorry you never quite get a nice shot - obviously just kidding. This is a stunner! The colors and details are remarkable. TFS.
