Camera: Nikon D2X

I dont believe this is my favorite photo from the day..but I could not choose a favorite. This was a fun shoot...a session shot just for me. I drove to the cemetery after shooting the couple in the swimming pool. I was drenched from head to toe from being in the pool and only had about an hour of light left by the time i got to the cemetery. I was pretty grubby by the end of it all!

Can almost see the flicker of the old time silent films with this image. Went to see your slide show and it was superb. There were many images there that would have scored higher than this one. But, I understand that this one was the consummation of all the others. How come we no be seeing dat groom be dissing hiz tux? Huh?

WOW I really thought this would be on the front page, I voted this a 10 during voting. This is amazing on so many levels, but the biggest one to me is how inspiring this shot is.

eta:

Ditto on the slide show my jaw is still on the desk! Oh and add me to the list of "I'll wear what ever you want" if you'll shoot it!

Yup - this was the one that stopped me in my tracks during the slide show.
Glad to see I wasn't the only one that had trouble choosing a favorite.
