Description

Thought that perhaps the judges might prefer this one. The bride is a little more animated with a touch of wind billowing in her dress and facing a different direction. I used the sky from the first bride as I thought it was more dramatic. Basically this is a resubmit for this month's contest.

Murry Grigsby September 23, 2004

I thought you married off this girl last month Dolores -- back home already?? :0) This is nice but I think I still prefer the first post! Maybe the judges will prove me wrong--I hope!! Very dramatic image. #800468

Claudia Kuhn level-classic September 23, 2004

The bride revisited Dolores... still very dramatic to me... hope she doesn't jump! #800535

Wow
What a dramatic and beautiful photo.
I love the contrast of the optimism of a new bride vs the darkening and foreboding skies.
Brilliant work, Dolores.

Thank so much, Barbara! I hope I'm not boring you with it. Thought I'd submit a slightly different version...it's competing with different people images in that category this month so thought I'd give it a try.

Thanks so much, Joy!!

Hi Casey!! THank YOU!! I appreciate it!

Charlene...Many thanks for commenting too!!

Hi Darren! As always I appreciate your thoughtful post!! STay well!

HEllo Cindy!! THank you so you also!! Such nice folks here at BP!!

Many thanks for your thoughtful and generous comment, Kathryn!! Always appreciated!!

LOri....I am pleased you like it! Thank you!!

Colette...as always, a heartfelt thanks for your note.

Thanks so much, Carolyn!!

Karma....I appreciate your thoughtfulness! Thanks so much!

Hi Dan!! Yep..that poor bride doesn't know where to turn!! Maybe she's too picky!! Thanks for commenting again on my bride shot. I hope I'm not overdoing it!

Thanks Murry!! Perhaps the judges will feel the same way and that's ok. I thought that since it's competing with a different lot of images, it'll place differently. If it doesn't, that's fine too....I'll have learned something.

HI Claudia!! Well, I sure hope she doesn't jump...I'm not done photographing her yet! Thanks!

HI Terry! Thanks so much!

bill...thank you once again! As always, a pleasure to read your thoughtful and generous posts. Happy day and have a great weekend...it's coming up!!

Thank you, Rob and Lyn!! But is this image getting attention today?? Is there something I don't know?? Thanks again for acknowledgement...but don't know what is being acknowledged to have two comments after 7 months. ??? #2819819

lyn winans May 26, 2006

May 26, 2006

It's just an awesome photo that deserves recognition from time to time. Don't question it...just enjoy it...as Lynn said. I would love that kind of recognition. #2820054

Dolores Neilson May 26, 2006

I am!! I am more than enjoying it...I am deeply grateful for ANY acknowledgement. It's such a gift. Thought that perhaps it rec'd recognition (other than what it has already rec'd)on the site since I've had more than 1 comment on it today. Thanks so much for your kindness and acknowledgement..especially at this busy time!! STay well all! Happy Belated Victoria Day, Lyn!! #2820283
