Clean lines from the railing and terrace roof create visual tension drawing your eye to the center of the frame and the couple. Good job there.

Could have been cropped as there is not a lot going on in the NE quadrant of the photo. The plane is unnecessary.

What's the story?
Why are her arms behind her back
What's he talking about
Are they leaving a show or going to dinner
How frequently are the airplanes flying over

-muddy blacks/dark areas. her shirt reads as a solid block of black and there is no distinction between his red shirt and pants.

-compositionally the white/light guard rail jams right into the male figure breaking up the whole image into a giant "C" shape

-if you were to crop the image down to a an equal amount of space from the subjects feet to the bottom of the image to the top of their heads to the top of the image then the image would be stronger and the pattern on the floor tends to pop way harder than before doing so then also brings up the play thats happening between the light hand rail on the right side and light roofline on the left cropping would also forgive the issue I mentioned above about the rail jamming into the male figure
