Judges Comment: Good gesture and very nice emotion. The only thing that bothers me is the hand on the lower right hand side which could have been easily retouched.

Judges Comment: The bride with her hand on the grooms back is really nice. The groom is emotion is great and even the setting works. The line on the right hand side should have been cropped out and the left hand side could use a crop.

Judges Comment: Nice moment and nice composition. I would suggest darkening the groom a bit and bringing out a bit more detail in the brides face which would give the tears more emphasis.

Judges Comment: The mirror like response of the bride and groom is really nice. Darkening the background around them helps draw attention to the subjects. The little area near the brides waist would have also benefitted from a little darkening.

Judges Comment: The composition and color help to make this quite graphic. The veil also aids this image. Nice job.

Judges Comment: Great look on the brides face. I think the image would be stronger if the horizon lines were straight and the lower left hand corner is distracting.

Judges Comment: The hands over both faces are a nice touch and the image works well. It is a shame that the hand comes in from the right side as the image would be much stronger without the hand.

Judges Comment: Simple clean and well down. The brides hand could use a bit more detail but all in all a very nice image.

Judges Comment: Emotion and composition are good. I like the darkening of the background but wish that the face of the woman was opened up just a hair.

Judges Comment: Good emotion and gesture and very nice color.

Judges Comment: The overall image captures a nice moment. The left side of the table needs more detail and needs to be toned down a bit. This would bring the eye to the woman on the right who is the key to this image.

Judges Comment: Nice emotion and nice job on the toning of this image.

Judges Comment: Simple and clean with nice emotion.

Judges Comment: The group hug is nice but I wish we could see a bit more of the bride. If the group were enlarged and there was less background the image would be more compelling.

Judges Comment: The bride sitting alone waiting is nice. The black and white checkered floor contrasts well with the dress and the walls and the red flowers are a great accent.

Judges Comment: The bride in the corner against the wall and behind the door says a lot. I love that everything in the frame is essentially white. The image is a little flat and would be stronger with a bump in the midtone contrast.

Judges Comment: Very nice image and it works very well as a square. Love all the dark tones and yet the photographer did a really admirable job of pulling out detail in the dark jacket.

Judges Comment: Really nice emotion and I like that the sides were bought down so that the focus is on the couple.

Judges Comment: Another nice moment. The eyes are looking down in both the bride and the groom which works well and the one tear on the bride really grabs the viewer. The toning was also a nice touch.

Judges Comment: Very nice image with good emotion. I like the darkened edges. The only thing that bothers me is that it looks like something is growing out of the brides head.
