Wow, these guys are usually good. Who won over all?

SteelBird said:

Not sure who's the final champion. One thing I've been admiring those lion dancers is that the two guys cooperate just like they were one, thus makes the lion like a living. Cambodia does have some very decent lion dance also though not good enough to participate in international contest. I took these photos when I was "patrolling" Phnom Penh during Chinese New Year back to 2005.
