Excellent series featuring interesting interaction between the two. Great detail in the first close-up, also.

Herb, Herb, Herb..... these are just over the top. And that #9 head on display shot is too much

What a great set. Don't know if you had too much lens or just cropped really tight. Would like to see a little more on some of them, but I know sometimes it's not possible. Anyway, these are worthy of two Kudos (by the way 1 Kudo = 5 stars . . . yeah, I made that up )

Great work,
Fred
