Sex info, adult/immature
It is always a good idea to add the sex info once it is given; I did it this time, and of course this is an adult.
Also, a little cropping (to 560 pixels on the larger side) wouldn't hurt. It isn't vital but only you and editors can see the full size image; others miss the details.
Great shots BTW.
