Challenge: Take Two II (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark II
Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM
Date: Jun 23, 2011
Aperture: 1.4
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/60
Date Uploaded: Jun 23, 2011

 Forgot about this challenge so it is last minute. Quick setup, couldn't find my old wedding ring so substituted this. Test shot, shot grey card and took final shot. Happy with it so quick edit and upload. No idea how this will go but it is what I had in mind earlier in the week just forgot about it. Predict 5.7

Shot shallow to mimic sadness and drunkenness, hope it isn't too shallow. Debated on B&W but liked the color better.

The original entry
I chose the same theme but really went a different route with it.

This tells such a powerful story – full of emotion accentuated by the tear drops on the letter. Well done and an improvement on what was already a great image.

Dear John? Great POV and DOF. All that's missing is the lemon and salt :) Bottom's up!

Powerful image, certainly an image that has a lot more to offer than the usual eye candy.

Nice perspective, the DOF is a little shallow IMHO

This is a gorgeous photo for what is such a depressing occasion. To me, that wedding photo is a lovely view into this man's mind.

This is an interesting composition. At first glance it almost appears as a Cuervo ad. Then the words on the page and the title show the opposite.
