I like the framing! Looks like his head may have still been moving when you captured the shot. Kind of brings the shot to life!

Yep, I think so on the movement, Adam. It's amazing at how little it takes to create blur, isn't it? It's a curse to those of us who worship sharpness!

"Dark eyed Junko. Look at that!"
...is what I said when I saw this. great closeup. They're usually so busy it's hard to catch one resting like this.

It's worshiping sharpness, not movement, that is the curse. Motion-blur communicates life.
This is a fine photo, BTW.
