Personally I don't think that an image has to be 90% noise to make it relevant in this theme - and this shot isn't *that* noisy - however it is a beautiful shot - a candidly captured moment with a wonderful composition - this would have worked well for last weeks theme too! Great work.

A great composition. Wonderful body language.

Overall very effective. I am not sure what this image is about, but it reminds me of a scene outside a wedding banquet. The women seem preoccupied and distant, and the fellow seems harried due to his lack of focus. Very interesting photograph for giving the observer a story to imagine!
