Hi Joni,
I don't know if is a photo to receive many points,but I really
like it and it's a good one no doubt.Beautiful capture of
the young couple and marvelous treatment with a classy look,
I am not sure only about the top of the photo with a maybe a bit to exposed part compared with the rest of the photo.Stay well.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmamamiya, Joni....a very romantic scene. I like it very much, so much emotions and very sexy posture of the girl. Technically, also I like the exposure very much gradually becoming lighter as you go up th eimage. Thanks for sharing...Alex

HI Joni,

you don't know how many times I had been walking across Cordusio square when I was Uni-Student!black and white is the right choice to emphasize the naturality of this scene...good depth and pov moving fort to the old buildings!

well done

Good stuff Joni, except that bright, upper part of it, which simply is taking our attention (if only for a moment or so) from the main feature of it… The kissing couple ! (especially, that the couple is hidden somehow among the elements of the bottom part of the pic.
But… It has the feeling of the Parisian dudes of 40’ and 50’, and the moment is a true 'perfect timer'…

……………………
Still loving those cranky clickers, are you ?

Me too…

the other shot I liked a lot...
Many cool features: the metro, the textures, the drawings and writings, the architecture and, yes, the young couple. their position is unusual and the effect is that it shows more passion. You chose daily life but for me it's a decisive moment. A proof, and I guess, is that your heart started pumping like crazy when you saw the scene because you knew it was good and that the moment would pass in a second...We're still lucky that you had the time to press the shutter!
I don't find the upper part distracting.

funny how you shoot so many pictures at night. But I seem to prefer your day shots most of the time.

see you,

Marc
