    I'm very drawn to #2, the gentleman in the silver suit really sets the whole shot off in a very cool way. As a matter of fact it's close to being very cosmic.

    Like #2 best, too. There is a satiny sheen to his clothing, but also seems to be there for the rest of the shot, though subtle. How much processing?

    Other two are "colorful", but not in a sense of being strong color composition.

    #2 is the best, I think. Laughing.gif, the last one looks like a big orange wrecking ball, about to swing into the gentleman's head. (my sardonic humor, sorry)

    Thanks for commenting. #2 is my favorite as well--it was kind of surreal to see a woman in a wedding dress just walking down the street with no wedding party around. The guy in the shiny suit may have been the groom, but I really don't know. I didn't have time to do anything but take a shot and hope for the best. No special processing other than some noise reduction on the red channel, IIRC. The wrecking ball idea hadn't occurred to me, but I love it. thumb.gif

    Two and three both work for me. There's something really disturbing about number 3. And number two is wonderful.

    Thanks BD and Liz. I don't really see the disturbing element in #3--wrecking ball apart--but I have nothing against disturbing.
