It looks like it could be a little lean or possibly timing may be off a bit. Normally the porcelan should not be totally white, there should be a tanish color from the end where the electrode is moving up towards the end where the plug wire goes.

The color on the prcelan usually starts to develope rather quickly. It may be there but not visible in a picture.

Go WOT on the plugs, then shut the car off, and remove them (or one). Idle time will ruin the read on the plug.
