I think a title is:

She: You promised we are going to get married this fall, honey?
He: (singing): I want so much that the summer never ends...

I really felt drawn to this image. What a struggle young relationships are! It makes me glad to be old. LOL! Good shot. CameraShy09

Thanks for the comments. This young couple was engaged in a lengthy discusion (long enough for me to put the 1.4 TC on my 300mm lens and take the shot) across the street from my balcony. From the body language of the young man I could see that he wasn't enjoying himself :) It wasn't until I focused on them that I could even read the print on his T-shirt... which makes the shot imho.

Thanks Denise...I guess my lense of a younger man isn't quite the correct one to be looking through...I can see now that you've made this comment how this does convey the idea when considering them as adolescents! Thank you for your comment back....I take back some of what I said, now with a new lense I see more of it!

Cheers,
:-D
PS. Nice shot!

As the mother of an independent 17 year old, I totally get this image. Nice work.

I think this picture tells some of a story...the independent on the shirt seems to perhaps be juxtaposed with the relationship between the two, or perhaps, his smug looking up is his "independence"...It may just be my read of the photo, but I get drawn into this emotional dichotomy of sorts...It is well taken, however, the emotion may not be strong enough to hit me as "Oh yeah" I see independence, or dependence...All JMHO and my interpretation!
