I like it a lot. It's hard to tell which of them is more proud!
A very precious moment captured well.

... interesting--a lot is going on formally and story-wise

Lovely, deeper that a simple snapshot. I'd like to see a version with the legs of the man a tiny bit lighter. I don't know whether it would be an improvement or not, though…

It is a very nice story and the processing of the man and the girl is fine. However I can see a little magenta banding in the sky. Perhaps a crop from the top? Overall very likeable.

Thank you for your encouraging words!

Cheers,

Fine shot, Bernard, but it could use a bit of work in Photoshop to bring up the faces. Backlight's wonderful stuff, but it can cause problems.

I obviously don't know the nationalities of the guy and girl but they do look dark skinned to me. Lightening the faces would be problematic? I feel that there is enough rim lighting  to make their faces recognizable?

[BernardLanguillier]

They are indians, face colour was pretty dark to start with, but I agree they could be improved somewhat.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Bernard
