The background is distracting, and the top of the bar is overexposed. Looks like this may have been taken when was a bit too high.

Subject unlit, background overlit. Also, I have no idea what I am looking at or why.

Though you've limited the depth of field the background is still a distraction. Seems a little overexposed, too. There's a nice sculptural feel to the subject, just think it needs to improve on the technique.

Its a little flat on colors, and overexposured there at the end f this thing, The background seems a little disturbing too, Good composition though, Good luck :)

This has got to be one of the best photo's I have ever seen in my life. The DoF is fantastic, the lighting is perfect. It tells a story, this is about an elderly couple who have been together for over 50 years in marital bliss, yes they have seen hard times, but through the good and bad they have created a bond that no one can break. This must be on my living room wall !!
