I didn't vote in this challenge. (was too busy researching for a better camera :-) )
This is such a natural photograph, look at the expressions of all the people.... Truly enthusiastic. and the best part is that you have successfully captured the emotions without having do a setup kind of thing. i like it because of its spontaneity |

Thanks for the votes and comments. There were 4 hired guns at this wedding and at least every other guest had a P&S, bridge or DSLR with them. There were 2 videographers. It was impossible to get a shot without someone having a camera in their hands. If your getting married, insist on only 2 photogs, 1 video and that all other guests will be frisked on the way in.
Re: Snapshottish? Ok, but why? It was a casual family (of mine) outdoor wedding and not high society papparazzi with all the glitter and gloss of Hollywood.
This was an emotional style impromptu shot and I was asked specifically to get these types of images on the day rather than stuffy, staid, bride smiling at groom or "all the sisters together" now shots.
I saw this coming and prepared myself for the throwing of the flowers by climbing onto a wall. All the other official photog's were mingling at crowd level getting facials...(pun intended).
As for the flowers, no significance other than they fit the bride's/maids colour scheme of the day.
Voters who entered a photo in this challenge gave me: Avg (participants): 4.7500 and yet didn't bother to comment... 190 of 232 voters gave me 5 or higher and I got some comments, kind and not so kind! Thank you for those! |

Good shot for the challenge, but unfortunately looks a bit of a snapshot. |

Nice capture. Looks like everyone is having a great time. An orange flower? Cultural significance? |
