This was taken on Michigan Ave outside the Art Institute. I had been visiting the Henri Cartier-Bresson exhibit and was just hanging outside the museum, when a limo pulled up, out hopped the bride (groom was just to the right of the frame) and all her entourage. Just couldn't resist this.

I've been so tempted to take a shot of somebody else shooting a wedding but never had the nerve; I think I may have to!

I'm sure if someone was speed voting this shot, they'd miss all the faces in this shot and what each group is doing. While it may be a simple shot of a wedding party getting their photo taken, there's more depth to the shot than the average voter will see. Good capture.

Street photography of wedding photography...nice. I like the hands embracing the bride.

Pleasing black and white, and the extra mystery of the glass and the two arms that look like they belong to the bride but clearly cannot.

lots to see in here.
i'd like to nit-pick about the bride's being partially cropped here.
still, good one.

The thing I like about this one - are the couple on the left of the shot just strangers taking advantage of a photo op? I know I do that sort of thing, but rarely stand there and chimp - I at least walk away first. :-) Also have to wonder where the hubby is? 'Tis a nice photo to visit with - and that's what street photography is all about to me.

It would be good if it was taken from the children's angle.
