nice detail on rose. Tilt doesn't add anything to the shot.

I see a wedding as more of two people joining, then as a show of independence.

perhaps you're joking or perhaps they've been fitted with a one of those newer, slimmer, more portable ball and chains. as far as the pic goes, the focus is nice on the flowers though i'm not sure that should be the main attraction. maybe a smaller ap and stepping back to get everything in focus would help for me. also too bad you had such a distracting background to work with

Technically this is a great image in most respects - focus excellent, colors/tones great, DOF, POV excellent. However, I am not a fan of using a technique when there doesn't seem to be a need. I don't know why the image is tilted but I just have an urge to straighten it out. Thats my opinion of course but I feel the image would be improved without the weird angle. 7 - good luck in the challenge!

I thought getting married is the opposite of independence? But I'm sure it fits the challenge in a way I haven't realised so I won't judge on that. I like the angle and the DoF, very nice shot :) 7

hmm...isn't a wedding the opposite of independence?

If that's a wedding cake, then isn't this more of an "end of independence"? lol

Linking marriage to independence is a bit of a stretch. I think most people would lnk to a loss of independence. That said, this is a very nice wedding portfolio image. Your clients must be happy with it.

I would argue that this is the complete opposite of independence! LOL :0) (I am not marking it down for not meeting the challenge BTW!)
It is a gorgeous pic with a creative angle the colors are good too. very crisp...

Gorgeous photo. I don't think it conveys independence very well. Maybe loss of independence.
