I like almost everything about it, but I'm a fill flash kind of guy. I would want a little more light on their faces.

Fill would make it much more appealing to me as well.

I agree as well. Fill light - faces. Did anyone notice that there is what looks like a bee flying on the middle left quarter of the image. hehe.

oops. right side for the bee or is that just a spot?

Thanks guys. I did use fill flash but I guess the combination of distance, sunlight and whatever my ETTL settings were must have reduced the amount that hit them.

I knew something wasn't quite right, I'll try upping the light on their faces in post and see if it doesn't degrade too much.

I like the second one better, but in both the girl looks like she is trying not to fall. I don't think the couple represents the same "feeling" in the either shot. The guy looks like he is having fun...while the girl not so much.

I think the lighting looks decent in the 2nd.

Geno I like the feel of this image. I would bring them up a bit in post. I think a quick mask and levels or curves (which ever you prefer) sould do the trick and not look glowy or contrived if done right.

I like the first one more. Their posture looks more graceful. But that might just be me.

Both are too dark for me and also like someone else said, they aren't on the same wavelength.. She looks like she's trying not to fall and he's trying to pose for the camera. I don't think either one works, sorry.


I am super cool n' stuff.
