Separated

So... this is a different shot of what I was trying to achieve yesterday. A thanks to @jyokota for suggesting a different orientation and composition. You were totally correct! :). (But I put the ornament in, anyway). I like this much better - I hope you do, too.

Almost like they are reaching for each other.

Such an amazing community... bless you all.

Hi Rosie, thanks for trying an alternate composition! I find it interesting myself to try different variations on composition. I like how you moved the ornament top and bottom to show the idea of the separation.
@Taffy and I are looking at it together, turning my computer around, and we wondered if (not to post here but just to play on your own) you might try having the ornament top at the top , hanging downward with the empty space showing where the ornament might have been . . . Or, go back to your original one (which was a great shot, too!) and just move the ornament top farther to the top right corner?

Thanks for letting us chat with you about composition. And, your constructive feedback or ideas will always be welcome on mine, too, please!

@jyokota All great ideas, which I really appreciate. Thanks for taking time to think critically about this presentation. I really am grateful. I am enjoying your Chile trip, second hand, so big thanks to you for that. :)
