  • Stunning photograph. The beauty in the image is striking. Wonderful use of light. Wonderful. Simple, beautiful image of bride. Soft focus and subjects down-turned head create an evocative image. This was a superb use of natural light. The texture, detail and the ratio between the highlights and shadows was first rate.
