Nice. A good way to make the hops stand out a bit more is to back off your liquid extract or dry malt extract and sub in corn sugar. The corn sugar will ferment out 100% and leave no flavor. So it will give the beer a lighter body and more pronounced hop character. Just FYI if you want to try it. That's how they make Pliny the Elder and Younger from Russian River.

Your beer looks really good for a first batch. Good job on keeping it clean.
