Saturdays wedding was WET WET AND WET...

The B&G was great, they love the rain and we captured images in the rain.

Using the big trees as cover :)

Love the first one!

Second and third deserve a tighter crop. IMHO that is.

Love the idea on the second one, but feel the elbow to the left and the separation between the arms holding the camera and the head / shoulders ruin it somewhat.

The flare on the third one is too distracting for me, but the rain is great :D

Nice one. I love wet weddings. Being the drought, they are few and far between.

With the last one, I would have preferred it to be straight.

I always put my lens hoods on in the wet to try and keep the rain off my lens. It doesn't always work though. ;)

Yes, the hood did not help much, I just had a cloth in my pocket for the constant cleaning.

Vince I've looked at this group a few times now and I just keep coming back to that first image. There is something magical about that shot - great light, natural composition and lovely tones. A definite winner for me.
