  Fantatsic photograph, Bill. I love everything about this. The fence (of course) and the DoF is superb and with the couple just out of focus, but not enough to disguise the fact that they're in love. Very well done, my good friend - Allan

  Just brilliant Bill! I really love this! It would make such a great engagement shot! Like Allan said, you can still tell they are very much in love, although out of focus. Very great job on this one! Love it!

  Wow, thanks for all the wonderful compliments.
It was fun to watch all the couples walk through this park hand in hand.
Most of them made it to this very spot on this bridge.
It was very romantic, and I'm glad I was able to convey that mood.
Thanks again,

bill

  First-rate photo essay on young love in the spring, Bill, you captured all the heartwarming elements beautifully here! (Although it does look to me like the young man is talking on a cell phone, maybe I need to adjust my monitor!)

  I'm a sucker for Romance, Bill, and apparently so are the judges!
This truly earned its finalist spot, with wonderful dof and composition.

Congratulations for this, and for "Free Parking" and "The Suitor." Best of luck next level for all three of your finalists.
