What a beautiful scene. I love the pink sunset colors and the sharp birds. Great job. I would rather the border wasn't there. . but knowing this dpc bunch, that's not the first time you're hearing that. But I still love the photo and think it's perfect for romance! 9.
Wow, wonderful capture. Interesting color, it almost blends with the water. The frame is a bit distracting though I like how the image continues out of the border.
Sorry, just had to comment on the frame, just what were you thinking? Almost ruins a perfectly good shot? Anyway, pretty hard to look past it so I don“t know if my vote is objectionate or not...
I strongly dislike the border. Since the people are the intended subject, cropping out some of the larger birds from the top right would probably have improved the image. There even appears to be a convenient horizontal section free of birds that you could have used as a cropping point.
Content, quality, framing and perspective are all very nice in this mage. This is one of the best images in this challenge. Understood about the use of pink as a metaphor for love, but the color may seem too bright and artificial for some voters. Making it a little more subtle might work better.
IMO you have destroyed a fascinating image with this heavy-handed border. I'm not wild about the color shift either. I look past all that and just look at these very strange relationships between bird & people and go "wow".
Really nice photo, but I think it is really spoiled by the border. Also, I'd increase the contrast slightly and the saturation, to really boost the great colours :)
