Yes it is scoring a lot better than I thought. I mean, I really liked it, but I wasn’t sure because wedding photos don’t normally do well on DPC. To tell the truth I had nothing else planned for this Challenge, and in fact I shot it one day before rollover. First time shooting an Indian wedding, (groom was British). Who knew they were going to be sitting down for most of the ceremony.

Thanks for all the lovely comments so far.

Yes, Indian weddings are colorful and yes it is really long process not just few hours but some time days and everyday there is some activity :D

Congrats on the Blue, Anita, and in advance on winning the ribbons race, no doubt about that as you are entering now every single challenge.

This is a very good image, you caught the interaction, although I didn't guess that it was a wedding and these were bride and groom.
