Thanks a lot for your previous comments! And also for the future ones! They are very encouraging and even if I am new here, I already feel like part of the community.

I keep all my photos in my head. All I have to do is find them in reality and then press the shutter.

Thank you for helping me with this!

i´m probably old fashioned, but the lack of sharpness throws me off this one. otherwise a really good shot

@shallowregret: I don't think that your opinion might prove that you are old-fashioned. As well as the fact that this intended lack of sharpness should not prove that I am in a different way.

It is just a different perception regarding this image.

Thanks.

The softness gives a nice finish. You've been in Chester...?

This is a lyrical image: the warmth of the couple, the playfulness of the wind, the softness of focus add up to a really dreamy feeling! Actually the off-focus bothered me for a few seconds, but the more I looked, the more it grew on me, until finally I think it's integral to the success of this image - a feeling of observing discreetly.

@Damon Schreiber: I did not want to say it and I hoped that somebody would notice it: the urge for intimacy and, consequently, my discretion. Thanks a lot, Damon!
