A couple more shots from my unknown Hyde Park Wedding...

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.

A couple more shots from my unknown Hyde Park Wedding...

No trick photography this time unlike in this thread...

Just another couple of photos from my unofficial candid wedding shoot in Hyde Park on Sunday...

Daughter: I wonder if it's too late to get this ring off...
Mother: I wonder how I can best use the available light to get some half decent photos???

And here's one that the happy couple might actually have paid for (if only I knew who they were...)

Nice candid shots,
You managed to capture some nice soft ambient light hitting the bride's face on the top shot without blowing highlights too much - v. hard to do in that uneven light.
The second shot I like even more. Great expression - catching them looking at each other. The (sunset?) backlit veil you captured, adds warmth to the image even more.
They definitely would have paid for that one.

I especially liked the second one. Great lighting, exposure, and DoF. Awesome timing to capture the expression just right.

The first one looks like the Bride might of let off ( Nerves you know ) :shock: and the other lady is on to it :roll:

The 2nd is really nice, maybe a tighter Crop.
