 This wedding is long over. This bridal bouquet found tossed and abandoned beside a road near our provincial house of assembly building. I was walking home from shooting the budget speech (conveniently the day after this challenge started) and thought that this was a symbol not for the long married bride but also for the popular Premier. After two terms in power; The Wedding is OVER!

The Honeymoon is over!

This is a great find... would prefer it with a plain black border or borderless... and would have been nice to have more width on the right side...

I like the photo. But thought that "the honeymoon is over" was the term I had heard of before.... not "the wedding.." A worthy capture, none-the-less.

Reminds me of the Blair Witch Project. Kind of creepy.

I like the image and the editing but the border is just WAY too much. If it wasn't for the border I would have given this a 10 but the border messes up the whole shot. 6
