I like the interaction of the two. The photo here isn't quite sharp and has somewhat of a red/magenta color cast.

E.J.,
yep, the picture qaulity is poor, But it is still one of my favorites due the their actions

It was fun just watching them play around...basically this was just a grab shot, and prayed for the best in its development. lol.

Cute shot Jason. Sweet little critters aint they.

The magenta cast could be corrected easily in PS, although perhaps not the sharpness

The action is nice, but the softness and high contrast detract.

Cute 'lil scooters. I would consider a crop to remove some of the oof rock on the bottom and right side and maybe move them off center. If I could, I would then keep working on bringing under control all the elements that will produce sharpness while photographing.
