 Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed his face and kissed his head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make him glow
Why are you so far away? he said
Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you

Hi Sid:

I think a crop would def be better, are you allowed to crop in minimal editing ?

Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that contributes well to the challenge

Well, not being a Kate Melua fan I assume that this is the title and lyrics of one of her songs? Anyway, the image is good, it is a touching pose well executed with the focus clearly on the couple in this intimate setting that conveys the excited anticipation and love the couple have for their soon to be offspring. I have this on my screen in a square format cropped just below the couple and just skimming the top of the floral arch, this crop improves it a lot. There is extraneous detail in the foreground and roof that is not contributing to the overall end result, try it for yourself, I hope you'll agree?

The purple flowers are a bit bright for me. Cute pose.
