1. great catch!

The girl, the bird, the dress, the sunshine..............wonderful combo, all putting the focus on the main event.

5. Thanks.

I was a tad bummed that the bird didn't focus well, but the true subject did so I guesss that's the point.

10. The varied reactions to the Dove really puts that image a

notch above a group picture. That one gal to the left of the Maiden, looked a bit afraid of the bird.

12. While we are both still up in the night

let me tell you how I think this photo illustrates the beauty of what b/w does, without being b/w.
All that is important is right there in the illumination of light, and all that is supportive is right there as well, but subdued by being desaturated of light.
An incredible photograph. Especially because it is in color.
Big thumbs up.
