I'm not that rich...
I always wonder when people say things like, "Isn't it romantic" and such. What do they really mean?
From the time we can put thoughts together to form ideas, we're taught what romance is. Taught.
Not discover, to us, what we think is romantic (it might differ for every one of us), but it is handed to us.
So when people claim something is romantic, it seems they really mean: "This scene/setting/idea conforms to what I've been told is romantic, thus this, too, is romantic."
But is it? (Not this scene, mind you, just in general hehe)
Candle-lit dinners, walks on the beach, flowers, sweet nothings. Romantic, open to interpretation, or both?
Maybe two people find sticking apple stickers on each other's forearms a romantic thing to do.
It's not a candle-lit dinner, or a walk on the beach, but it's still romantic, isn't it?
I guess that's the point: Nothing (as in, no thing) is romantic until we declare it as such.
But yes, gorgeous shot, spectacular place and, in my estimation, romantic.
