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.

Nice is all about quality not quanity in his posts!

The boat must of made things tricky, hand holding on a rocking boat would be a trick proposition.

Thanks guys :wink:
The couple just wanted me to capture the event, with plenty of group images with friends and family. There was not much formals taken.

The ceremony initially was going to be at the front of the boat, but it was moved inside becasue of bad weather :cry:

The 1st image was captured on top of the boat late at night, I knew it was going to be hard on a rocking boat. I brought my secret weapon....a video light to create my own lighting...instead of using a flash :wink:

#1 is a gem Vince. The lighting is both unique and flattering. I would never have thought to light an image this way. :up:

#1 for me too, great lighting, great moment etc.

#2 just seems to lack any strong point of interest.
Would love to know what that streak on the left though, seagull ?

Mystery solved, and it actually makes sense, it is the bridal vechicle after all :)

The first one is a cracker Vincent, and taken aboard a boat! A candid keeper for sure. I even like the frame. Ozi.
