    • Come on!! That moth didn't just land there by chance when you were photographing the rings?! What a stroke of luck! Nice use of shallow depth of field. Placement of the rings on these delicate flowers is really nice. They don't overpower the strength of the rings.
    • Patience, Patience, Patience. Great timing and composition.

      • I'm guessing the bride and groom are baseball fans. The laces of the ball add a little spot color to what is basically a B&W image. Smart choice to use a used ball instead of a new one to add a little character.
