Forum rules
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.

Sorry all if I've been a bit quiet of late, I've had a lot on my plate both at work and at home. Well I guess a wake isn't your normal place to be taking photos, but I was asked to take some shots after the ceremony, and I'm only just now sorting through them. I wouldn't normally frame a shot like this, but it just happened and I kind of like it. Let me know what you think.
I don't see why not
I don't see why you would not normally frame a picture like the one here. I would be very proud taking similar quality pictures. It is a happy and natural photograph, lovely smile, sharp, nice colours, and a good composition. Before you frame it, check the eyes because I think I detected a small white mark that can be easily corrected.
Yeah Craig - I'd be happy with this. As Zafra said, it's happy and natural. What more would you want? The fact that was taken at a wake adds more poignancy to the warm smile shown here. Nice work.
I agree about the white spot Zafra pointed out, just above her left eye. Many won't notice it but, once you know it's there, it's gotta go!  Simon

Thanks Zaf, my wife actually has a little white mark there, but your right, a judical use of the clone tool or spot healing wouldn't go astray. Thanks for the feedback. She was actually falling down a step and so fell out of frame, hence my comment about the different composition.
No offence meant to your beautiful bride Craig! The white spot looked like an artifact of some kind. It can stay!
However, I can't condone your pushing her down the stairs just to come up with a different perspective! To get to the last Tim Tam, fair enough, but NOT just for a snazzy composition!  Simon
