A close-up, photo-realistic image of a young African-American couple ice skating at night in New York City. The man is gently catching the woman about to fall, their faces close together. His eyes are closed, her eyes are open wide as she looks up at him in surprise. Soft snow falls around them, and the glow of city lights softly illuminates their faces.
