She did not. She was rather shy. I thanked her and went away

I like this a lot. The woman is interesting on her own and the somewhat busy background somehow adds to the story behind the image– That is to say this is an image where the background and foreground are both individually strong and, simultaneously, complimentary. Very hard to do on the street. Congrats on the ribbon

Fresh and unusual. I liked the engagement and lowish POV and vanishing lines. 8. WD on your yellow.
