A well-composed humorous photo showing the couple embracing and kissing while a little girl cringes and hides her eyes. I also like the way that the lighting and background shapes work to complete the composition. A classic photo executed perfectly! I loved how the photographer kept the couple in the middle, resisting the temptation to put them in the right third of the frame, making the child on the left more noticeable. It is a photo that rewards you for giving it more than a quick glance.
