This is a nice shot!. Part of me wants to see about 2/3 less sky as its a bit flat and featureless BUT that said I do like the feeling of space it gives . Im not sure if the colours have been broken up a bit in processing or weather that is just my screen ?

I’ve looked at this a few times and I can’t make up my mind either but I think it kind of works, I would rather see the couple further into the frame.

Yes I’m afraid your photo is very flat (lacking in contrast) and as Dave says it might be better if the couple were a little further into the frame.

I like it, maybe a letterbox crop would enhance it. Take out half the sky and see what happens :D

yes i like this – its grey and dull day – its Ireland after all :)
it might be a little blurred on the figures though doesnt affect overall image – i agree cropping letterbox and losing half the sky might enhance it

good start – keep shooting :)

You could try to take a slice off the bottom – to use the sky to enhance the isolation.

There’s no getting away from teh rule of thirds here – the couple should be a bit more to teh right.
