This was during IndiaWilds meet. Had posted an image before http://indiawilds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10228

Nice you got them both looking in the same direction. The light was quite low. Maybe slight less space on the right would enhance the composition further. Thanks for sharing.

Tough scene as light was bad. it is good that both of them are looking at the same direction. If the head turns were identical, then it would have resulted in more symmetry. Thanks for sharing.
