The thrill is gone
It's gone away from me
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away from me

I think I agree about the text, but I'm too lazy to fix it. ;~p

Oh man those hats are classic. Their dress makes me wonder where they're going. Or perhaps they're just dressed up for no reason. Great candid shot.

The moisture is gone, the firmness is gone. LOL

This is a great moment that you caught. I like the lyrics too!

Oh Judy! This is so awesome! What a moment you have captured. Who are those people? The lady looks like another version of you ??? Did you sneak that shot with your mega zoom lens.

I love everything about this photo. Those hats. The distinguished way they are dressed. Looking right at each other intimately -- yet -- with that look like they'd just as soon choke each other :) I love the black and white the background. This picture is just great!

Oh, this is marvelous! I like it with the words but I'd like it without them as well...wonderful b&w, and the expressions are priceless...teasing, not thrill-less IMO :-)

Nice candid, but I really don't care for the text location.

Great candid, Judy! yeah I'll say that I'm not a fan of the text where it is as well! : )
For the Aussies here, I reckon he could be a Queensland politician... holidaying in Texas? ...or not : )

they look like they are just about to crack up .. great shot & a great process .. i'm not that fussed on the positioning of your text tho ... altho because of where it is its a bit like the words are coming out'v their mouths .... just my personal opinion .. :)

Oh, I am not too sure about the Thrill being Gone :)

Great processing and find. I love the jargon between them, makes me laugh. It goes so well with them, huh?

I like their body language and expressiveness, even behind the sunglasses. Well captured. :)

The smirks just make me giggle... :-) I guess I can see your rationale for putting the words where they are, but I'd rather them not be there. And it still makes me giggle.

The thrill certainly is gone!!! If the bench was any longer I think this guy would be sitting even further away. Great capture.

This is good. I agree that the text either needs more contrast or shouldn't be so tight around their faces.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I'm torn with the placing of the text. On the one hand I agree with fixedintimethat it is distracting on his face, but on the other hand it might mitigate the boldness of the words by moving them elsewhere....
On other apects, this is a great find, though I would like to see a tad more contrast to accentuate the subjects.

Love the B/W processing and the verse to go with it. I just wish the words weren't going into the mans face. I really enjoy seeing what you come up with.

I like the image itself. I do think it would be even better without the distraction (for me) of the text. It makes a good street image and leave me wondering what was really going on between the two of them. And you caught them looking at each other, apparently not speaking with those expressions. Just marvelous.

nicely done Judy, although your little smirk there makes me think you're holding out...maybe waiting for him to put the seat down?? hehehe

I like the B&W and the composition. You're so inspiring in your images and creativity!

nope, they're just sizing each other up. ;) (text shouldnt interfere with their faces imho.)
great tones and spot on exposure.
