Strange...in the little picture his head looks a bit lifted...in the big picture his head looks more relaxed and into the water...in both cases great body position.

Head, mouth and shoulder catch my eye.
Head looks very steady and breath looks nice.
I do think however that the torso is too deep looking at how high the water is hitting the shoulder and rolling over the chest.

Great rotation and probably a deep catch to go along with this. I would think that getting the torso up higher on the water may allow him to move faster. Other than possibly that everything looks very relaxed and fast!
