Sorry I don't have much critique to offer, but I do want to say I think it's an excellent photo! The B&W works well.

Your background is too busy and cluttered to be useful in separating the subjects in a low contrast small tonal range shot such as this. Be careful of your background when shooting in the street. If it is to be part of the scene then make sure it is in focus or if it would be a distraction and you can't defocus it enough then get a different POV.

I like the couple and they are interesting enough to hold your attention. Just needs some tweaking on the composition of subject and background orientation and interaction.
