    Yep, I can see it

    I took this image walking around. I liked the intimate look.

    Terrific photo—such expressive, authentic faces. They’re so captivating that it took me a while even to notice it was in black and white.

    A superb image of the two faces. However, I would do some editing. the bright areas behind the people is distracting. For example, just a few mouse clicks in ACR (LR would be the same) to select the people, invert the mask, and darken yields this:

    It needs more work; for example, I would do some local adjustments to darken the bright areas around the woman's head, and then I would again select the people and work on contrast a bit. However, just darkening the background help draw the eye to the faces.

    +1 to Dan's comment. The bright background is distracting and toning it down the way he did improves this image.
