Beautiful work!! Great capture, nice composition!

Love her outfit!
Her way of looking is very well captured!

Great post editing desat work!

Interesting clothes. Traditional, i presume. She has a very deep look in her eyes. Nice selective desat work. Good job!

A very good photo although I might have tried moving left to frame her eyes with the necklace or at least to get a clear view of both eyes. Only a suggestion and I do like the shot as is.

i love a good selective desat and this is certainly one of them, great capture, agree with Garys suggestion but still love it the way it is

nice work

Excellent capture!!!.....great details!
The partial desaturation works very well!
Her eyes are lovely!
Thanks for sharing the life of your wonderful country!
Great work my friend!!....top marks!

Nice to see something from you. Good choice for selective desat. The DOF works well.

A great picture, i only think the focus should have been more on her eyes or maybe the necklase... atm you are getting us to look at her flowers

gunners is right about the focus. The desat. works very well here. the mood is also very nice!!
I'd suggest a vertical composition. Now it looks too tight cropped :/ I think another composition will make her look even more sympathic.

else a very nice capture!!!

Thnx Gary for the critique, he did go for that shot too.. have a series of 3 shots here.. unfortunately the expression in her eyes is not anywhere close to this one... !!!

Hey Thnx for the comment Lenny, well why would U expect a bride to look sympathic on the moment of her wedding... ??
Infact her eyes are full of dreams & happiness ...

Oh & i forgot to add that the hands in the shot are those of the groom.. so the crop..
And the thing that is hanging from his hand in the background on the right is a traditional element of sorts that a groom carries in his hand thoughout the wedding day.......

I hope the composition is justified now given the significance of the elements included in it........

well ur right about it.. the focus was on her nearer eye... so the flowers just stayed in focus as they were nearer .... was still using F/2.0 ..
the other eye was intentionally kept out of focus...

the Indian Gold work in always perfect
they do love art by all means
my mom here in Egypt baught from Al Madina in Saudia , an Indian Bracelet , which have awesome details and tiny works with beautiful colors
those people are colors kings
they are really even lovely in their celebrations
like the color festival celebrations
i saw it in the Sholay movie

Wow beatiful Bride and outfit..!!
Great DOF and selective desat....!!!
I think that the focal point is OK to me IMO...!!!!!
Great job for both of you...!!!!

Nice and clean! Beautiful details too! Well done.

Nice pic and a great story.

A beautiful shot!
It has so much Romance to it.

Great shot Rushi

the great desat has already been mentioned.

The whole scene looks 'epic' with grandeur.

Nice focus too

+ 10!

Nice shot Man!
Cool desaturation work

i think if it was everything b/w or color would look better... i wish i could assist to something like this must be amazing to assist to such a wedding. and she seems to be very pretty.

I like how the flower is sort of covering her eye, it gives he an excited/shy look.
Excelent!!!

Beautiful work Rushi. The selective desat works well here.

nice moment captured. personally i don't like this kind of desaturation, but that's just me.

great details and tones..also impressive portrait ..

top marks..

 Wallace : Thnx man.. Really appreciate ur comments & always look forward to them.

I am familiar with this culture; it is also same in Bangladesh.
I like the shot and also the color editing

Wow she looks wonderful.
Very lovely, as most of the work in your gallery is!

yeah i think i know what you mean, it brings the main object more into focus.

YES.

gorgeous shot.. would have liked to see both eyes more cleraly, as well, but still a phenomenal piece!

nice work. sory luminous but in bangladesh they have different culture. in this photo u see a typical Hindu marriage. u can see this kind of marriage in india not in bangadesh becouse bangladesh is a muslim dominated country. they have different kind of marriiage. how do i know this things??????? couse i am an Indian........... anyway dakoo u have done a great job........

Not only amazing, it makes people understand a bit more the world.

Beautiful shot and great work with colors.

Great !
i love it all!

Both of you did a great job in my opinion, very cool!

great shot...captures the feeling...I would like it to be more focused on the face though and not the flowers...feels nice to comment again

Incredible tones. I love it, both the desaturation and composition work.

Cheers,
Aaron
