Windswept

Comment by ordinaryangel:
This is really beautiful. I too love the windswept feel of this, and what a location! I only wish perhaps that the couple were seated a bit more to left left, in order to see tho whole of the opera house, and also to completely distinguish the bride from the white of the opera house, though I must say you've done a marvellous job!

Interesting concept that meets the challenge. The bottom right corner is a bit distracting. Perhaps a different crop.

Almost but not quite an abstract, and very pleasing to the eye. Nicely composed, and very good capture of the warm rich color of these roses.

Comment by Melethia:
I really do enjoy the color version, but I do think it works quite nicely in sepia as well. It's just simply a great shot - it'll work any way you want to process it.
