    I feel constraint and uneasy feeling. Maybe it's because of the tight composition and the expression of the couple. I wonder what do they think when you take the shot.

    I definitely get the idea that you're intruding on their private moment.

    Yeah, maybe a little rude but it made for a great shot.

    i get the impression of very rich people who probably look at everybody like that.. its probably how they pose for all photos except family ones.. they think it looks dignified an american would think its a sneer..

    Really love this picture, great job, it could mean quite a few things, relationshop problems, intrusion. Maybe its because of the way the shot is taken like so many "through the window" photographs of celebrities today but the stillness and quality of the image suggests somthing different. Very nice.

    P.S. Some truely great work on your website!

    You've captured an excellent moment in time and it reminds me of the exhaustion that my wife and I felt after our wedding. We got into the car in the late evening to drive off and we were so exhausted we didn't have enough energy to think.

    Superb!!

    Great shot. Love the 'voyeruism' aspect of this pic.

    Nice affect,
