Picture a Day: nice pair

Greetings, friends! Let me throw into your feed this light post with a single visual - not too much text to read xD
With my job swallowing me recently I am absolutely out of time, again. Simply cant afford to tell stories or dig in the archives (I wish I could! I even started to shape the post about my 1st job for SilverBloggers challenge, but it seems will never be completed... heh)
So, I selected one photo for this week #Photofeed Black & White Photography challenge.
Not much can be said of it; happy folks are a pure pleasure to look at! Noticed those strangers on the street and made just one click, no doubles; considered that black-and-white mode suits this frame best way. I consumed tonns of great quality black-and-white images during this weekend, so probably it also This also guided my hand.

Nice shot! They probably never knew you caught their image either! What a great exposure in mono, it just works out so nicely. I hope the work isn't keeping you too busy and that dental stuff isn't killing your finances like it is mine! lol

Grazie! Thanki for such a warm feedback. 🙏 I did not consider but now I think I should include it into best shots of the year list. Tho I never succeed in creating such lists - never completed even one, here at Hive.
Have a great day, and Hive !PIZZA my friend!
Sending you some Ecency curation votes!
Meowww! thankssss. ☘️
Bravo! 👏 I would be proud of a shot like this.
What can be read from their faces:
The guy is getting married for the first time. He looks very happy and clearly feels the importance and responsibility of the moment.
The woman: she seems older than the man (maybe by about ten years). Perhaps this is her second marriage, and there’s a sense of déjà vu and a bit of uncertainty about the decision on her face.
I could keep going with these observations for quite a while, but I don’t want to spoil the frozen moment.
(Just a flight of my imagination.)

There is something of life divercity and complexity here, definitely.
Unintentionally, the street shot might got a bit more than average level.
FIne by me! it explains why I considered the capture deserves a special monochrome edition. ps. Thankyou for such developed and nexpected compliment, much appreciated. (And lets see what the fptpdeed jury will see in this).

Considering all of the above and the depth of emotion conveyed, this photo should take first place. (Although they didn't appreciate my beetle at all.)
Странные критерии, субъективность конечно имеет место быть (и имеет право на это). Как мне кажется, среди критериев жюри есть и такой: не давать занимать почетные места лауреатов одним и тем же лицам подряд. но, возможно, это мне просто кажется :)
жука обошли несправедливо, факт, он классный и сам по себе и как макро - точно говорю.

Maybe I should have cut the beetle into pieces? 🤣
