[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took pictures for my friend's engagement. We went to a public park where there are a lot of flowers. We did it early in the evening just an hour before the sun sets. I asked them to be just by themselves, enjoying what they encountered. And I walked around to find a spot that I think we do a good photo. Here is one of them.

Hello Sothy,

You capture a wonderful moment with beautiful colors all around. The sharpness is great with well-chosen POV. I like the feeling of happiness and contentment on the faces of the couple. Great capture!

Thanks for presenting.

This is nice, love the idea, the colors are nice. There is significant blow out (OE) on his shirt, left shoulder. I tried to color correct as it is a bit "orangey" for me. This is the solution to this. I would have used a F11-F16 for Fstop. F3.5 is too soft, too open for bright sunlight and 9 times out of 10 you will get OE on white objects. You got a great lens, just some adjustments in Fstop is the answer here.

I always like the way you capture light and colour in your shots. I like the diagonal formed by their two faces and the way that diagonal leads the eye down towards the flowers - effective composition. The shadow behind and beyond them works really well here.

IMO in some cases, overexposed or blown out areas are ok, ideally it would be more controlled but to me it's not a big issue.
