Well, I should say the head looks light, BUT is it carbed to what you want? I only say that because I did not notice any head retention on the glass, so I assumed you took the picture pretty quickly after the pour. This is a great chart to use if you have any doubt about the PSI setting.

I hope you didn't take my comment as critical of your beer. Its yours, it looks good! Carb it to what you want, not what I think it should be at :D

Cheers!

It should also be noted that chart is for sea level. you should add an additional .5 PSI for every 1k above sea level. being at close to 8k altitude, thats a +4 psi difference for me.
I enjoy this chart as a good example as well as the one linked above.

I talk all feedback positively and appreciate any ones advice. I bumped it up by 2psi. A little extra carbonation wouldn't hurt it. I am enjoying the flavor and do recommend the recipe
 
There we go, its holding the head now. Thats around 13 PSI.
