nice positional game.  Any other ideas if they accepted the second pawn?  the discovered attacks don't win material but is there enough positional comp?

 

Also any other comments on the game appreciated

Nice double attack.

If I played black, I might have gone with 12 ... Bxc5, then preserve my dark-square bishop and use the Berlin Defense strategy and use white's e5 pawn as a shield as it is somewhat "in the way" of his own bishop (and rook down the e-file). I used to play the French a lot long time ago and used this strategy quite frequently. A lot of sitting back and patience is required.
