The washed out background really works with this one for me. I love the way you caught the moment so well, with both of them smiling like that. Nice job!
Unfortunately I did not manage to get a release for this photo. It was taken on the spur of the moment as I had lunch atop La Samaritaine and I didn't think anything would come of it...having played with it in PS, I WISH I had asked for their information - not just for marketing but because I would love to give them a copy of the photo.
Thank you for the comment. The background was not too pleasing in the original photo, so I used a bit of PS and a plugin from Optilabs (recommended by Yuri). Glad you like the photo.

Do you mean optikvervelabs Virtual Photographer?
if so which preset?
Yes that's the one, sorry about the name confusion. As I'm not at my own computer at the moment, I can't remember which preset I used but I believe it was one of the "dreamy" effects in the drop down list. Essentially, I pulled up the plugin and scrolled through the effect and chose one...wish there was more to it than that but that's the secret to this photo! Thanks for the comment too .
