It's kind of hard to describe, but it was very well done and there was just a nice flow to it. It was very detailed work. And there was a soft warm light that complimented it perfectly.

Well, I'm sitting there just staring at it, haven't even touched my food yet. And I keep playing out different angles in my mind on how I could get a really good shot of it. Thinking about different exposure settings, what the best DOF would be, what ISO I'd probably need so that I wouldn't have to sacrifice too much shutter speed and risk blurring. The average photographer stuff . Then I feel a hard flick, right across my forehead. Apparently my fiance had been talking to me for a whole 5 minutes straight and without realizing it, I was nodding to her words so she thought I was listening to her, when in reality I'd never even noticed she'd started talking. I was so fixed on framing this potential photograph in my head. Then she realized that I hadn't heard a word she said and brought me back to reality lol
Be truthful, this is how you typed that post, right?

Lmao that's hilarious. I gotta steal that . She's actually pretty understanding and supportive, so she just pretends to be mad at me for awhile lol.
