 Shot at a wedding I was at yesterday. Wedding party wanted me to do some candids, they had a hired photographer for the formals. I like the picture, but personally think it looks 100 times better in full color.

Minimal editing. Non Crop. Done in Nikon Capture NX.

Interesting take, It takes a moment to get. I think the woman on the left looks the role, but I think if the lady on the right looked more angelic? Rather than angry, I think it would have played out better. IMHO.

How cute! I think this is a great concept for this type of photography.

I agree with posthumous: you were robbed.

I think the picture is hilarious! But I'm betting that it is better in color - the desat seems to take some of the life out of it.

Hard to say why, but I really like this. Maybe because it's seems like a true powerful "moment in time", very well captured in a photo. Yes, it seems to be a true "bit of life", can't say exactly why...

That's funny. what a candid!!!!! I can only imagine what they are talking about. If this is someone you work with, or something like that, I would hang it on a public bulletin board, just to get their reactions
