Nice but how would the first picture have looked if you had shot away from the buildings so that you had just the beach huts and not the back ground buildings?

The huts with the colours receading would have been very good.

Good point. I had a couple like that, though, and I ended up with an expanse of not-very-nice side wall of hut filling the right of the frame - this just semed like the lesser of two evils. Also, the scene is very place-specific, which is what they wanted to convey.

They look like they are having fun!

Where were they taken? I really like the huts!

Hove (East Sussex) seafront. To everyone who has spent much time there those beach huts are instantly recognisable and the couple really wanted to set a few pictures there to get the sense of place.

Nice shots, very natural. Maybe some flash fill for both would work well?

#1 is cool, but i'd like to see one where she's a little more serious. #2 isn't so flattering with her face like that. I like both though, despite these niggles.

Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina. One went to Hollywood and became a famous actor. The other stayed behind in the cotton fields and never amounted to much.

The second one, naturally, became known as the lesser of two weevils.
