every time I see this on the front page it totally stands out. the postures are something you couldn't make up... and the close cropping is incisive.

Oh my, this is wonderful! I did not get a chance to vote on this challenge, however this would have been my #1. Very emotive, honest and sweet. The man carrying her purse is the icing on the cake. The processing also takes it up a notch.

many congratulations on such an emotive and powerful image ..
and of course the ribbon and the PB .. way to go .. !! ..
love comes in all shapes and sizes .. and this is a testament to that emotion ..
it doesnt matter at all what the 'real' story is .. its what this photo conveys .. the connection us humans can have whether we're young or old .. healthy or infirm .. just wonderful .. :)
what's particularly endearing is that the man is carrying the woman's handbag .. of course that's an assumption .. lol .. !! .. ;)
