The two girls were about 3 or 4' apart. with PS I got them closer to give more charm to the photo. Then passed to BW and added a bit of contrast. This is the result. Captured in Ciutadella de Menorca. Las chicas estaban alrededor e 1 m separadas, en PS las junté, pasé a BN y añadí contraste. Este es el resultado. Realizada en Ciiutadella de Menorca

Outstanding. Monochrome is just right. In photography, as in life, a little cheating is sometimes called for.

Xavier, I think your cheating helped the people bring intimacy to the scene. Well done.
