On a hot summer day, everybody loves napping in the shade!

Would you go with #1 or #2? Thoughts about framing?

I like #1 better for the position of the foot.

I really like the more sideways profile of the face in 1. Nice shots!

#1 is almost perfect, were it not for the tangent the horn makes with the branch.

Photoshop to the rescue! :p

Thanks all. I was afraid the 1st shot was too squarely sideways and static and boring. :)

I like them both, but, agree that #1 is the better.
