I am not much of a titler (also almost never ever crop). Reason this is posted in this section is obvious. Rip it.
Feel free to use any tools at your disposal (such as your own work). No need to be obtuse as well. :)

Vivek,,I think the central part of the image is good but if it were me I would have framed differently with there being more room at the top (and less at the bottom) and with the couple more to the left,not including most of that empty area on the left what allows eyes to swerve away.
If I may post a rework to make the point, it may become more cogent.

Is there a she-him too?

Andreas, Lew, Frank- thanks.
Lew, It is a polite NO. :) I think you did make your point clearly (a good one). I appreciate it.
Frank, That comment would have made me flinch. This is one of the very rare snaps where I shot from the rear. I am a bit touchy regarding comments of the subjects in my snaps. Hit the photographer. No worries there. :)

Vivek, your title is very appropriate, because you did shot the grab! :D

Great title ... good capture. As a stand alone image this shot is a bit weak. It is something we see a few times a week. But in a series of Street/City/People images, this shot is glue ... essential, it will hold the series together and prodding the viewer to see more. I've been toying with a square-ish crop, making the subject tighter and more prominent ... but then I say no, the off-center and wide somewhat empty street have some lines to speak in this play ... but then I say yes, a tighter crop could eliminate that distracting traffic light ... then I say no, that distracting traffic is like a sentinel ...
Well done Vivek and excellent B&W conversion.
PS- The title and image brought an immediate smile to my face.

Akira-san, Not your usual insightful thoughts but that is OK. :)
Gary, Thank you. I agree. :)
(FWIW, although I hate to inject it here- the gear- it was using a Leica MM. Monochrome camera. No conversions involved and I am terrible when it comes to PP.)

Okay then ... my kudos go to Leica. ;)

The title made me think street shot, when I clicked to open the post the image did make me chuckle.
Great catch, well done.
Cheers

Great title !
were they together ? I hope so, she seems to be busy texting ...
nice b&w processing by the camera
interesting, verticals on the center and to the left are vertical , but leaning to the right on the right side
Thanks for sharing

Good shot...my brain wants the camera to tilt up slightly.

We all have different tastes and preferences, and I would have framed it differently. MUCH, much tighter. Cropped the lower part down to their knees, cut it on the right up to her handbag with just a bit of space there and put the street lights in the upper left corner.

Great and fun street shot that brings out smile -I'm also looking forward to the rest of the series...

That's because you're a butt man.

Yes, I know how to ruin a shot
