The processing is not flattering this image. The angle may be cool but it lacks "pop".

I feel like he's about to say something directly to me and I'm part of this moment. Excellent character capture.

Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
I've spent a bit of time looking at these two shots; I really like what you've done with the tones and the shades, and I think the crop is spot on (it helped to have the original to judge that). You do get a feeling that this is a confident young woman; that comes through pretty strongly in the capture. Her eyes are bright, her smile honest (and, I must say, untroubled). You've thought about the technicals of processing, but don't miss what you've captured and what's still come through.

I think I would prefer this shot without the people.

I think the wording on your photo makes it too busy. I think if you extended the photo on the left, added a border, or just used smaller font, it would have made it less busy.

Sorry but the image quality of the photo of the couple is just dreadful, was that image taken on a camera phone? It just makes these two images blend together rather badly, the blur on the rim where the two images intersect is also a dead giveaway, try to stay clear of that in the future.

Not sure what to say really. I don't think the orange/pink font was a good idea, although, I realise you were matching the clothing but it's hard to read over the mustard wall.
