Sweet! Maybe I was influenced by you and didn't know it! This is a lovely shot as well - grain is well used and it has the timelessness of B&W and old Europe.

Greetings from the Critique Club

Beautiful image, very appealing subject matter.

You seem to have a small area of brightness above the bridge that needs touched up. Also you might want to crop in just a tiny bit on the right side to get rid of a tree trunk I believe. Just doesn't seem to need to be at the edge of the photo.

Definately fit the challenge well and stunning!

A good nostalgic feeling along with rain. The grain enhances the feeling of both. 8

Nice sepia, nice contrast, nice grain, nice couple, nice umbrella, nice bridge. This is a happy grainy picture. Everything just works so well together. I'd bet you're doing quite well with this right now.

Nice shot. However I doubt that it benefits from grain at all. IMHO grain works best with greater DOF. But the shot is nice anyway.

What a perfect photo for this challenge. The grain adds so much to the feel of the image as do the duotones. This one should score HIGH! I can't think of a single thing to change. well done!

Not sure where this was taken but reminds me of the art pictures you see of Paris. Kind of a romantic feel to it.

I like the tone of this shot. It could have been in the greeting card challenge.

Very charming and romantic photo, with the park and bicycles, one can easily take it for a country in Europe. And if this is Europe, well then - even better.

I can hear French music playing in the background. Very movie-esque Quite artful.
