Woodies oft don't score well here, I think this will be a high scoring woody shot. His posture is great and you can almost see his anguish and their is an air of tension, please tell me no woodies were hurt in the creation of this shot? (bumping 2 after reading my comment lol)

Poor Woody! This looks awesome, though. I can't wait to learn how you did it. The color is unbelievable. Hope you don't get any flack from Woody conservationists.
