It is difficult to take such an overdone subject and reinvent its romanticism - and yet this is exactly what you have done. The silhouette and the dusky, autumnal colours marry up perfectly to create a terrific composition.

Thanks all. Use this one as a reminder to always carry your camera. I was going to pick up the car from the mechanic (he'd finished late the night before) and almost didn't grab my camera on the way out the door. On the way home I saw this.
