Greetings from the Critique Club:

Great technicals here in terms of focus exposure etc but the apparent tilt is problematic as is the cropping of her knee and finger. They are a great couple and this is a really good picture of them but they do dominate the scene; we see the tracks but you make us not care, your composition asks us not to look - "look at the people please". I suspect your score would have been fairly similar if you took this same scene without the couple; that give's you a sense of what they have brought to the scene.

Without them, you had many processing possibilities; with them, your kind of compelled to treated them with some (editing) respect. They limit your options for getting creative.

Just some thoughts...

Regards

Paul
