The Bridesmaid, a photo from Southern Islands, Central

Photographer's Note

This is another shot from my weekend photo trek.

As I was a bystander, I did not feel right in interfering or bothering any of the wedding party- to ask for anyone to pose for my shots. Hence she's not smiling for my camera- but the wedding photographer.

Cropped, and slight amount of Gausian blur applied.

good colorful portrait but i agree that focus is a little soft. DOF is also a bit too large however the background is nice and its colors suits the subject.

You need to stop gatecrashing wedding parties!

Nice portrait, but I think you should apply an unsharp mask to her eyes, lips & teeth. The application of a blur to these areas distracts the eye from the subject's most important important featues.

Good luck Daniel, and happy snapping,

Vic, Singapore.

Splendid colors and composition. It's true that you could add some sharpeness to the eyes and the lips but the picture is just great as it is...

Wonderful portrait and the girl is (very) pretty. The face expresses joy and well being
