I really don’t understand why this lovely picture is to become an orphan, personally I like it much more than your next posting (I also suspect you too.) Ignoring an interesting or ambitious picture seems to me in contradiction to the very sense of TE.
For me this photo is full of the mediterranean isle atmosphere, in a quite interesting, although disputable composition, with a beautiful, kind face of one of the ladies. Unconscious association or contrast of the title with "Men in Black" could be also worthy thinking about.
Technical imperfection might by considered as serious (too much space for the foreground wall with partly highlighted stones, consequently too much hidden lady turned back to the viewer, some might sonsider inapropriate the content of her bag - I don’t agree), but all that cannot disqualify this really nice picture.Maybe not the best one, but clearly in your personal style, Mimi, which I like so much.

Mediterranean atmosphere in this one. I like very much the moment you catched. I also agree with Tavo about the higlighted stones, but the soul of the image are great.
