Hello,
I added another take it I had but I am afraid it is very poor.

thanks much!
seeing the head pattern may help. it's always a good idea to start with a series of various angles: you never know what may work, and it's better to frass any redundant pix later than adding missing details piecemeal (experts can be reluctant to revisit past submissions)
