Great lightful composition.

The subject is quite classic, but I must say that the realization is outstanding - the timing is perfect to have the heads in the sun against the shadow. The vertical comp is also really working well. A great image, Kal.

I keep thinking 'Mad Max' and the couple striding out to reset the world order and make everything right. Their fingers touch, and all is right with our world. You have such an eye, Kal.

I see this image as a metaphorical trip through time, Kal. The firmly drawn and lengthy shadows in the foreground represent the past, defining the couple's relationship as perfect. (As always, hindsight is 20/20.) The actual couple represents a more realistic view of a relationship, the flow of light and fading shadows making them seem vulnerable and even transitional as they move out of the past, into the present, and towards the future. The background of the image, equally divided between ominous shadow and dazzling light, offers alternate views of that future. You have created an image worthy of our thoughts.

This is a brilliant study in subtle symmetries where the inner core is mathematical progression: one frame is divided into dark and bright, evolving into three shafts of light, revealing a couple whose shadows form four. I call this a photographic fugue.
Bravo Kal!!!
