Very nice. The tones, the expressions, the light, and that wonderful pose. It's fun to think about what the story is (now I'll go read your comment, Trav). Penny Street

Wonderful storytelling shot. There are so many stories you could make up to go with this. I like the magician idea, like he had just made the flower appear on the table. Your new camera must be very quiet, you can't have been very far away from them and they don't seem to notice you taking pictures. Good work! ~Sharon

Well, it is her clutched hands for me, the down cast eyes, his apparent....happiness, glee?

I was going to title this the Magician....but, in real life, these two...are having plenty of trouble...and she is in constant pain over this relationship, secretly.

I am surprised that I caught the truth so...Easily.

I have a flash version where everything is clear and distinct...but this, as an artistic choice, a little impressionistic, is far better.

In my humble opinion.

I think this is a really strong image for the topic. The demonstrative pose of the man seems so at odds with the woman apparently ignoring him that there is a real sense of isolation...Michael

The loneliness of failure to communicate. Looks like a frame from a movie. -tv
