Hi Rikke,
Thanks for taking the time to comment. In this photo I was trying to show the vibrant, vivid colors of the flowers and to evoke a feeling of this couple being just one small part of an immense tropical paradise.

I have cropped the photo to get out some of those elements that you found distracting. However, I don't like it as much. Now there are only a few of those colorful flowers, and the one in the center appears to distract from the couple even more.

I didn't try another angle for this candid shot as this was snapped quickly when I saw them walking out to the shore.

Again, thanks for your comments.

Aloha, Patricia
