Love this composition, with the couple sitting on a bench and the stairs leading to an upper part of the park. We can imagine stories. Will they stand up and climb hand in hand this stairway?

baobab from Cambridge, United States

this is starting to feel impressionistic :)

I like the way you draw the eye in with the vignetting, and the slightly off-kilter composition with the couple to the right of the vertical track given by the path and stairs. especially nice that the tree bends toward them to draw them in.

and lovely light and colours... how much of the colour was already there / how much did you add in pp?
