Nice pics Sal. No 3 I'd like to see the image of the bride moved to the far left of the frame so that she is looking into the frame rather than out of it.

Afraid you missed the point there Sal . The bride is still looking out of the frame.

This is more what I had in mind Sal. If there's any more on the original to the right, it could do with a few more millimetres.

Not bad for a newbie :lol: :lol: :lol: :mrgreen:
Like I said to ya yesterday, it's the basics in camera settings, that are letting ya down now. Next time ya do one, give me shout and I'll tag along to give ya ideas on where your settings etc should be. The eye is there for the shots, you just need the settings etc to become second nature (which is the hard bit). Tried to pull this one back, that was a bit soft. There was also a bit of CA (the purple halo) that was killing it. That was caused by shooting wide open at f1.8, on the 85mm. This shot should have been around the f4-f8 mark, which would have killed the CA, and also given a wider DOF, so the wall and them were in focus ;)

PS: Like I said, if in doubt use "P" mode, and switch off auto-ISO. Yeah it's cheating a bit. But as some will tell ya "P" also stands for professional :lol: :lol: :lol:
