The idea is nice enough but It just doesn't work for me I'm afraid. I'm sure others may love it, so don't take it to heart!

cheers

I'm sorry I have to agree with Bill it is an interesting idea but not liking it at the moment. Worth playing with though maybe less of a starburst would look better. I am not sure what is not working do like the concept.

yes, maybe a little less starburst. but to me it looks like something straight from Hollywood on a movie poster, including room for the title up top and room for the small print at the bottom. a tale of love with some alien being.

I think this would look better with a less harsh burst of light... The couple is too soft compared to the light and therefore don't get noticed well enough...

I think this would be great if his chin was on her nose, and then the shape of the safe between them created a heart, and no starburst.

Good concept but the burst of light is a bit too strong & distracting for me. I like John's suggestion, maybe try B&W or monotone.

Agree with the others..... the burst is to much.
