  • I love the way the candles stand at attention like soldiers at a coronation and lead the eye right to the kissing couple. Beautiful light all around, and lots of interesting details to explore in the faces and expressions of the onlookers. The technical quality of the image is not superb, but the framing and moment and light all work well.
