I think this is only the second time I've said something like this on this site, but this really should be way way way up there. You were robbed. I think you may have gotten hurt by having 1100+ images in this challenge where so many voters didn't stop and smell the roses on this one, it's an extraordinary image, be proud. Independent of my favs in this challenge, my girlfriend also picked this one out as one of her top 3.

I like how the canopy of leaves frames the scene. There's a very natural vibe going on here. The light is magical like a gentle breeze.

The main characters the ones to the right, just met. Left shoulder dropped, hanging on her every word, he is attracted, She on the other hand, legs crossed hands clasped, and bent forward protective, hiding all thats feminine, no attraction. Nice backdrop, and framed with tree and bush, almost perfect, and my highest score at 100+..
