Maybe it's just the way the light was falling but the whitebalance seems to be a bit off on my monitor...I'd also either center frame them or add a bit more space of the left side to push them more to the side. Otherwise it's a nice capture...

Nice smiles. Sharp.

You might re-crop the image tighter to eliminate some of the open area above your heads.

Thanks for serving our country.

I was thinking the same... But I know with my flash skills not being the best I would have probably blown it out... i will work with the raw file some more.

hi there...

yeah a little cropping and maybe a bit of sharpness and saturation would have given it a little extra...

hope you don;t mind but here is my attempt (as you had editing ok).... :-)

Opps I might have touch the hue by mistake.... but you get the idea.....
