Nice photograph. Not sure if the frame helps or not. How would it look if you cropped the sky out a bit for a semi-panoramic feel? A bluer sky might have gone better with the colorful grass maybe?

Nice but I must say I find the border distracting.

Nice moment, good rot and nice border, could be a bit sharper

Great composition. I like how they look so small when compared to the rest of the field.

This is a good photo, but it is hard to believe that it is a candid.. I don't think I have ever stumbled on two people sitting in the middle of a field like that before. ;) I will give the benefit of the doubt though

I think that you have too much negative space for a Candid challenge but this would have fit perfectly in this weeks challenge!

Looks like a scene from a movie. If you have the resolution you could try a much closer crop on the couple. The field doesn't appear to have any flowers or anything to look at besides lots of grass.

Have to say I love the image but I hate the border which seems a bit intrusive in what is a lovely soft shot

don't feel that the border does anything, but nice use of thirds 7

I don't really care too much for the frame, but I really like the pic. It just gives off cool Summer tranquility. Good job!

I like the shot but I'm not a fan of the border. It kinda stops the eye and then lets it go for a second before its stopped by the real border. I had a quick peek at this without the border (just dropped it into PSP and removed the border just to look) and I like it a lot better without it.
