Better than most of Miguel's photos, but if the subject is OK(*), there
is this big emptiness on the right side where the eye wanders without
finding anything to rest on. A good crop of the picture makes it really
better IMHO even if its chops off a good deal of the bride's train.

As an aside, I'm wondering about the motives of the people awarding a
"Flickr award" to Miguel's shoots. His photography definitely improved
over time but it's not anywhere near an award level.

(*) because the two people on the sides on the newlyweds seem to be
there to prevent them from fleeing from the upcoming sentence, but that
may not have been Miguel's intent.

Not bad, Miguel, not bad at all. It has its weaknesses/ Check you
histogram for blown highlights, for one thing.

Compositionally, the spatial placement of the various components
mostly works , but, and I think this is a big but, the attention of
the Bride, Groom and I assume family is directed away from the priest
and you have to wonder what are they looking at (or do you have to
look straight ahead when you are getting married in Peru?). If they
were looking toward the priest there would be a natural flow around
the picture. You can't do anything about that, but you could change
your position so that we could see what they are looking at. That
would be to your camera right and while it might mean losing the
priest, he might not be important to the shot with that take.

You're definitely improving and that's great to see. I suggest that
you explore your subjects more with different angles and not be
satisfied with the first one that you think is good. When you have
the time, like you would in this situation, shoot more shots and make
them different.

Keep it up.

Perhaps, like me, they are overcompensating for any derogatory remarks
that they may have made about his images in the past. This one may
not justify an objectively given award for excellence, but it sure
deserves an award for the massive improvement that it represents.

Irwell, Bruce and Ofnuts, thanks for your comments, I just also send a post
on another part in the historical center of Lima to make different pictures,
where I tried to improve the characteristics of place.

Hello, thanks for your comment, I have always in mind the practice again in
HDR photography.
