I like the placement of the couple within the setting, and the overall pose. I would have had him turn in toward the bride a little more. For some reason, the faces seen a bit out of focus to me. Could be the distance. The details just don't seem crisp, but that could easily be more from the web resizing.

The light is a little flat and I would warm up the tones just a tiny bit. That's a great spot to catch one with them looking at each other as well.

I like the shot very much, and see only those few places for improvement.

Lovely model and nice shot. Personally, I would crop this half way between the lines on the waistband as I find all that detail a little distracting from her face.

Gorgeous shot. I would have placed this one first. Very unique sky and composition for a hot air balloon shot.

I really like this profile view. On my monitor, I'd like to see a bit more contrast. It appears a bit flat. Nice sharp detail and composition.

Wonderful shot! Great contrast and depth to the colors but no blown highlights. I like the plain background...nothing to distract from that piercing stare. Nicely done.

Your setup is amazingly creative. Like this one alot. A little more black space above the "door" would improve this for my tastes just a bit.

Very nice capture that certainly creates for me a calming effect. I especially enjoy the gradiation of the lighing from light at the top to darker at the bottom. It helps add drama to the shot.

Absolutely delighted with the "conversation" as well :)

Congratulations.

Very pretty. I'd probably crop in a little closer...but then again maybe not :) The whole scene is lovely.

This works surprisingly well in BW. Great focus and detail and perfect exposure. I don't know why it didn't do better in this challenge.
