Awesome shot, Brian. One of the best I've seen lately! I love everything about it, the curved ground, the two silhouetted figures taking to each other and the vast empty space around them.

Thanks, Chris, glad you like it! I had to wait a long time to get a decent subject there. Either I couldn't get a couple where all four legs were making the same stride at once, or two people would overlap each other (I had one with 2 people and one person "walking" their bike but they wouldn't separate from each other, totally bummed cuz the bike looked neat), or there would be more than one group in the frame... then these two came along.

I did tweak the background color a bit. The sun is left of frame and I had to do EV -3 for f10, 1/8000sec to get the subjects entirely black and the resulting color wasn't terribly interesting (it got better later in the day but I was no longer there), so I squeezed the sliders just a touch in the histogram in PSE to make the color a little better, without trying to make it look too artificial.
