I was trying to do that, and it looks all weird. I gave up at the end...Maybe I should give it one more try.

Sometimes, things fall into places just like this one.

Yeah, I am not sure which one they will choose though. As long as they are happy. I am happy.

I was waiting for the wind to blow, and when it came...snap snap snap...came out better than I thought. Look like they are in a drama movie.

Hey Beachcomber, nice to hear from you again. BW is helping in this case. I am going back again this weekend with another couple. Have to think of some new angles now.

Thank you. I was using 24-70 f/2.8 L . My new baby. I sold my 17-55 mm f/2.8, because I moved to 5D, and that 17-55 is the EF-S. I am happy with 24-70 though. Good all around lens.

So I clicked on your link to see more of your amazing work and find out that you're new to this??? Wow! you have some great talent I don't know how you learned it all so quickly but if you lived closer I would get you to take our pictures

#3 has my vote. All the leaves falling really captures the moment. Nice work.

Thank you for such encouraging words. I am really happy you like my work. Ummm...yep, the end of May '09 will be my 1st anniversary of my Photography journey. It's been a lot of hits and misses along the way, but it's been such a challenging path. I am sure you feel the same way. I would be gladly take pictures for you if you were around here. :-)

Thank you, there is one shot that I tried to focus on the leaves themselves...it didn't work out so well. I will try that again this week with a different couple. :-)

these are great shots, I love the intimacy of the 1st one

great shots love the composition on the first one ,tilting the camera (i think ) has given this shot a great perspective.
