WEDDING DAY
I saw this snapshot while downloading photos taken from my iPhone. I thought it has some nice composition and tone. At 2mp, I love the result. This was taken while my bro and his bride (with her long train) was exiting the lovely church in Laguna, as the paid photographers were already in their best POV's! :) It has some cinematic feel, so I just added the black borders.

Composition:
Model: iPhone
F-Stop: f/2.8

Pp-work:
Software: Adobe Photoshop CS3 Windows
1. darken some areas and highlight the transparent train tool
2. add cinematic border
3. resize and sharpen some areas
4. resize for TL

Quote of the Day:
"I love spontaneous nature of weddings - that things aren't always perfect. I also get to see the tender side of people, which is rare. It's all about capturing the human spirit that is unique to each individual." -Bambi Cantrell

Hi Fred

Very nice capture.
Nice colours and composition.

Regards Derek

Creative POV and a great idea; this really takes a step away from traditional ol' wedding photos and delivers something refreshing.
My only other comment would be that it doesn't quite have the brightness and positivity I would hope for, it feels a little dark and oppressive ... maybe a slight boost in brightness?
Great shot, I like it!

Great composition. I love how you captured just the corner of her train with that tiny bit of detail. Very Romantic.

hello Freddie,
I like this one. You say t was an accidenatal shot, well there are such things as happy accidents. I like the simplicity and stylishness of this "alternative" wedding pic.
