Really good--very natural looking and the crab trap? is the perfect anchor for the setting sun.

I like the light, it seems to be reflected off a building and brings attention to the man in the back.

I like the repeating patterns of benches to bring the eye to the woman, the processing gives a dream like quality.

Comment by MacDonald:
I am late getting to my comments so I am not reading the comments made by others . Please forgive me if I repeat what others have already said:

What struck me first was the gentle/kind expression on the face of the man.. did you shoot this from the hip or did you choose to tilt this shot? The reason I asked is that I think it would be more effective if it was not quite as tilted .. your pp is interesting.. gives it a feeling of years gone by... not a fan of vingetting in all instances .. not in this one at least.. I like your crop .. the bicycle in the frame makes me think that when he is done he will get up and leave - all in all a nice shot and an interesting story for me to make up in my mind.

I am not going to read others comments as I am late in posting so forgive me if I duplicate them

I like the wee benches that are empty that lead the eye to her.. I also like the pp to a degree.. I do find it overbright as I want to see more detail in her and I am straining to but can't see what it is she is doing.. too much detail is lost in the path way as well as I believe it would hold wonderful textures, but I could be wrong and it might be very boring and you spared me that, ... not sure why you added the vingette.. to me it did not add drama, did not make my eye go to her.. but you are the artist and you might have had other reasons that I am ignorant of.. still when all is said and done, this is a lovely study and I have enjoyed seeing it .. thank you.

She'd never had a request like this before, but it thrilled her a little bit, and so she tried it. Placing the petals over her eyes as instructed, she puckered her lips for a kiss, and screamed in surprise as the puppy licked her face emphatically.

She jumped up with a laugh and punched her boyfriend on the arm. Laughing, he showed her the gorgeous little Husky pup, a pup she'd wanted for years. He was allergic, but his love for her was strong he said, and he only wanted her to be as happy as she could be.

Later that night, puppy safely in another room, the petals were put to another purpose.
