I love the colours in this picture. What is she doing behind his back? Putting something in his pockets?
This was the only 10 from me in this challenge.

The dude has his hands on his pocket... not too romantic. Also it has a lot of background. But you have extra points for not getting punched in the face :)

The color saturation really works well with the title/models.

I'm sorry but to me, one of the two of them looks indifferent. JMO.

Great colors, a very romantic scene. The angle of the shot is great, too.

like the colors. I see this doing well...funny thing is, he seems really quite indifferent to her advances...not exactly romantic. But, I think your image is the perfect commentary on how men and women view romance differently, even more so with younger men.

8 - Good capture and composition. Bold colors. Criticism; not much, the colors, while not my 'personal preference' in general with these color combinations, work very well here, especially to complement the coloring in the main subjects, especially the girl's hair. The whole scene/'set', like the colors, has a certain 'hard' feel, but again, I think this works very well in this shot and makes it. Hard to tell if this needs a nudge rotation up on the left or not, or whether the ground/surface is just a bit 'uneven', but minor. A more finely tuned crop, especially on the bottom/bottom left corner, may have refined this just a bit more. The overexposed areas and the sun/lighting, again, adds to this overall and makes for a fairly unique shot, in my opinion. Perhaps a little sharper, not sure.

This is great with the oversaturation of color. I like it's urban sense too. Bumping up - my fav. of the challenge.
