Expression is nice, but I think it'd be good to have a pic that shows the expression and what it is that's causing said expression. Of course, the pic currently on the page fails that, too.
Link to the page your picture comes from?

Belief or disbelief rests with you.Do we really need to show the cause? The trope is entirely about the reaction.
Personally, I'd rather have one of those shots of Wile E. Coyote with the wide eyes putting up the little parasol with the shadow of the falling boulder over him.
(Plus, that One Piece shot is kind of grotesque to me for some reason.)
I'm rather fond of the Quattro image. It's simple and to the point. (And the Eneru one is kinda creepy.)
Totally agree.
Reaction Image RepositoryHere's Wile E. Coyote and the umbrella◊. Unfortunately I don't think it works too well as a still image, though.
Jet-a-Reeno!I'm with GG Crono, I think the Quattro image is fine. Is there anything actually wrong with it? It's pretty clear what she's thinking, and this is a reaction trope, as Crowley said.
I also think one one-peice image is a little creepy.

Prefer Quattro that image has been up there for a really long time and is rather iconic considering exactly what is happening. Smug Snake realizing she 100% underestimated her opponent and the fact that the blast is coming though the ship with nothing stopping it.
If you really needed to change the image I would say this.

Sparkling and glittering! Jan-Ken-Pon!My vote's for Eneru.
My problem with that one is that it looks less like he's reacting to something shocking, and more like he just got kicked in the balls or something.
I mean, there's nothing wrong with the current image, other than it could stand to be a little bigger.

Reaction Image Repository... what's wrong with the current one?
Bigger helps.
Fight smart, not fair.Yeah, that's a good image, I see no pressing need to change it.
Jet-a-Reeno!A higher-quality version of the current image is a definite improvement, yeah.

I like that one. Put up the larger image and call it a day.
Reaction Image RepositoryLocking. Add any that were suggested, that aren't already on the Image Links page, to it please.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
It would be nice if we could have a before-after picture of Eneru from One Piece. I mean there is this big one, but we'd need one (or many small ones) that show him being cool, calm, collected, relaxed, arrogant... right next to THIS
