This isn't a "candid" shot; "candid shots" are ones that are "natural," as opposed to "posed." According to me, that means that they have to comprise subjects that are alive.

You can title this however you wish but it still won't be a candid, IMO. Without a person visiting or tending the shrine, someone that can help me connect more to the subject, I don't find myself feeling much of an emotional response to this image. The careless, snapshot quality of this provokes more of an indifferent reaction in me that removes me from the reality of what the shrine represents. I'm not sure if that was your intent.

Regardless of challenge-oriented comments (of which you'll probably get many, I'm sure), I think you could happily have used a point of view other than the straightforward standing-up one for this; it's a pretty humdrum scene, and needs perhaps more sense of context, which would have been available from lower.

You do what you think right! To me it´s wrong, but you´re free.

Would be better with less space around her and maybe a less centered composition. Try to crop tighter around the girl, use less space in front of her, she's your main subject and should stand out.

The white edges and the size of the photo are negatives for me. Looks like a shot otherwise.

A shoe(?) and flowers in a tree don't say romance to me, sorry.
