Hi Michael, nice lighting! I think the shot could have been improved if you had them move slightly away from the tree in the immediate background. The two different colors above her head limits the potential of the shot a bit in my mind. Also, I do miss the connection between the subjects. Even if you had her arm on him somehow, I think the intimacy between them would have been better portrayed. Cheers! Jonathan

Thanks Jonathan. The two colours above her head is a detail I wouldnt ha ve thought of. There were trees all over the place though, and I have cloned away two branches coming out of his head.

Their different poses as well as their different expressions on faces are well captured here. Well seen and composed photo. Regards, Michal.

I love this. The green/brown colors give it a nice warm look. It is sharp and the composition is great! It does appear to be a little blown out in spots. What I personally see in this picture is him saying 'I support you' in a loving manner as she is 'looking' out and imagining herself donig great things or reaching her goals.

This is a very good image! Warm colors and great emotions make it along with those three slight diagonal lines introducing that hint of dynamics! Sharpness and other technicals are fine too. The thing bugging me is her line of sight. He is very engaged with her, but she is clearly distracted by something which detracts from the overall feel that you are trying to convey. Otherwise very well done!
