Perhaps it is te simplicity that is so beautiful.
All the roads/lines meet some other somewhere. Perhaps love is to join...
Congrats on the ribbon.

After seeing so many of your shots in the Street Photog thread, I somehow knew this was you.

Great job and congrats on the ribbon.

Simplicity is so often the most appealing look of all. Especially when there is such interesting lines, and that scale/perspective thing I'm such a huge fan of! Congratulations!

I like the wavy lines of the surface and your placement of the couple. They work together to draw my eye in and up. This would be great for a travel, romance, perfume or jewelry ad. Well done.

On my voting pass though this challenge, I gave this a 7, but now on my commenting pass, I'm going to bump this up to an 8 (along with only 4 other images). This is a great shot... totally different from anything else in the challenge... you have great vision, and that you managed to capture this moment speaks volumes for you skill. The more I look at it, the harder I find it not to give it a 9... bugger it... I'll give you a 9. Congratulations.
