Description

This is a photo of my in-laws that I took on August 5, 2005, in Melbourne Beach, FL. They just celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary. They are both cancer survivors and have been through some tough times together over the years, but their love is endless. They are looking out to the horizon to their future, hoping and praying they have many more years together.

Sigma 18-125 lens, FL 95mm, f/8, exp. 1/250, Aperture Priority, tripod.
