Wedding Images from Bali

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Wedding Images from Bali

Had the opportunity to do a wedding in Bali about 10 days ago. It's definitely not comfortable with the sweltering heat and humidity but I'm excited with some of the images captured. Here are some of them for your opinions.

While these are excellent images, they don't scream out Bali for me. Do you have any that illustrate the Bali life as a backdrop?

Thanks, surenj.

Layered rice fields are one of the unique scenes in Bali. Beach shots, we thought, are too common and can be done in any beach (no pun intended).

Only those with sarongs (batik-type for wrap around) are allowed to enter all Balinese temples. So, wedding gowns won't be visible in there. Would love to do shoots in the temples.

Having said that, we did some shots outside the >1,000-yr-old temple. Here is another shot (the other is the 3rd image).

oops didn't see the layered rice fields! :oops: I like the shot in front of the temple as well. I would back off on the vignette a bit. Are these taken using natural light?

By the way the layered rice fields are not unique to Bali.. I have seen these in Sri Lanka...
