You know it's all about the emotion when you can strip all the detail out a photo and you still feel something. By using these silhouettes the photographer has shown us what's truly important.
A keen sense of light and composition.

Judges Comments
I chose this one for the sincere, raw emotion from the bride and the photographer being in the right place to capture that. All points in the frame lead to her, as they should.

Makes me say, "Whoops…" and wonder if this was intentional. Great frames like this keep the viewer guessing, "was that on purpose?".
