Excitement

Just a standard shot, I'd try to liven the photo up by having them do something, not just stand there...

I think a horizontal composition that would have traded their full body lengths for more environmental info would have told a story. Also the photograph seems to have been taken from up above for which i cannot see a reason. I think that makes it a bit impersonal. It goes without saying I'm taking the time to comment as I was drawn to this image.

Where's the excitement?

You mean that you wouldn't invite them to your party???

Ignore the idiot above. Interesting shot. It might have more impact if you took the picture from below and not above.

I think its a nice photo of 2 friendly people!

(thanks for your comment on my gull!)
