Beautiful poses, very elegant picture. There's two things that would improve this IMO, selecting the female's eye and making it show if possible, and running some noise reduction or blurring in the background.
It is stunning!
All good comments above. Lovely pose and elegant image design but to me, it lacks punch, especially the wings which look blah... Maybe it's the noise...
