 I've always had fun going through the archived challenges. I've been waiting for another Woody challenge for a long time. I've taken tai chi for several years, & the Olympics was timed right. Posing them for the tai chi position was very challenging. The critters are like dominoes; one tilts & it's all over! Editing; adjust lighting, contrast, & color curves. Convert color profile, resize, unsharp mask, save for web.

yeah, it would have done better without the stands attached. Any suggestions on how I could have posed them without the support?

A bit oversharpened (as mentioned) and you mighta done a whole lot better to free the poor guys from the poles in their butts. Harder to setup, but woulda put this closer to the high middle range of finishes, I think. :)

I like the idea and the execution is pretty good. I guess my only real disappointment is the woodies are still on the bases.
