Great capture, perhaps a tad less on the r/h side and more on the l/h side? :toast:

Tims re-work and Stevos' crop suggestion would make it perfect :wavey:

Thanks for the repost Tim, as I said in my original post it was just a quick tweek. This was due to a taxi driver at the front door with an Indian take away, which, at the time seemed more important! :smile: :smile:

Fabulous action shot, I just love that pose. Repost is better of course.

It's amazing what some skilfull tweeking can do for an already great shot. Cracking capture and cracking 'editing' on the repost.
