ah! vary nice!! trying to catch a garter snake and not make him flee from you before you could get the shot is extreemly difficult, ive tried it myself but every single time he slithers away before i could find him or he can feel me coming and he escapes.

I just love that they are looking at the fireplace instead of the viewer. The overall quality of the tones is beautiful.

Actually, I agree with dwterry. I would like the image a lot more if the person was more prominent in the image.

Comment by dwterry:
Hate to be a dissenter, but.... for me this is just too busy. Too hard to look at because there is so much going on in the image. It leaves the guy barely noticeable. Even worse, the buildings may be in sharp focus, but look at the guy's face - he definitely is not.

It might be fine as an architectural piece ... but not as a wedding album image, it just doesn't look like the story is about him.

Just my two cents worth (and you can see I'm not in the majority, so take it for what it's worth).

everything's in such sharp focus that it almost makes this look 2-dimensional... like he's standing against a backdrop. :) my eyes are completely drawn into this, though... i love the contrast.
