Thanks Ilya and I know the scale is difficult and some will no doubt say I should have used a telephoto or cropped the image for a closer view. But even with the scale challenge, I still prefer a 50mm view shown at full frame.

I know this will sound like "damning with faint praise" and it is not meant to but while it is a good scene, the water has turned out particularly well and this drew my eye away from the couple who are a little on the small side

The couple are in a private space. I think it is only right we should have to look to find it Maybe the river is too dominant at the bottom of the frame, but I'm not sure.

I agree with grahamp. I also think your inclusion of the lone person, on the right, adds poignancy.

Very nicely done. I almost wish I hadn't seen the title before looking. Your postings are like an instructional course in composition.
