Fantastic, Yun. Very nicely composed. The roof of the house made a great bg for the BF. No nits; I like everything about this one. devil

A lovely high key look at a bf that fits your approach perfectly, Yun. The clean, simple look works very well here.

There is definitely an Asian art print quality to this image. I think it shows considerable originality and is well presented.
