Only cropping has been done to this photograph, to center on the subject and take some detracting fringe material away.
The contrasting colors of the stones and the play of shadow and light enchanted me, and I hope will you too. Can I improve on these vvi a post processing ?

I like it. The eye can wander up & down the contrast-line between light & dark, pausing in the middle at the faces... Whatever the "fringe material" was, the crop was probably a good idea; there's nothing distracting to me. I wouldn't do anything else to it -- not a fan of a lot of "processing" anyway, but this doesn't look like it "needs" anything.
Nice (and I bet a really cool location to shoot)

Kissing statues? That's kinda neat, and they're both smiling! I like the sharpness and contrast, makes for an interesting shot.

Nice effect with the two statues. Well done.

Thanks for posting this very good image.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

The contrast between the two faces juxtaposed seems to work, with a strong PP effect using enhanced micro contrast and vignetting possibly giving the image more impact and less distraction from the area surrounding the faces.

Than you Ash, your comment is highly appreciated.

Very, very nice composition! That's a photo I'd return to over and over.

Great photo.

I wouldn't mind a little added vignetting, and probably a small straightening.

Maybe also removing a little bit from the bottom (about 60 pixels) of the image will make viewers focus more on the faces and reduce from the unnecessary visual elements ... and create maybe a little bit of a better balance.
