Thankyou and she was kind enough to sit in the window for this photo and a few others as it was hot, almost like being in a greenhouse.

My lovely bride Jennifer.

Beautiful Bride, beautiful portrait, beautifully done. What else can be said!
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :judge: :judge: :beerbang: :beerbang:


Indeed!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:


Thank you gentleman, I cant tell you how much it means to me to see this portrait of Jennifer....Not because I took it, but to see her look so happy and healthy only three weeks and enduring a major surgery (craniotomy). On 4/13/11 she was surgically treated for Superior Semi-Circular Canal Dehiscence which had given her debilitating symptoms since 3/17/2006. The surgery went extremely well and the recovery has been nothing short of a miracle. It is good to see the one you love so happy.....I keep telling people that through it all she is one of the happiest people I know, almost obnoxiously so.


So pleased for Jennifer and yourself, followed her story on facebook and could have cried at times, in fact many a time I had tears in my eyes, this is a super shot of a lovely looking and lovely hearted lady.

unfortunately we are becoming a race that suspects everyone, personally though mine are more for advertising purposes as I am a professional and want people to seek me out for work.

Cool capture David. The flower and DoF are wonderful and that creature looks like a cross between a seahorse, a bumblebee and a hummingbird! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Don I have such a phobia of Bees and Wasps, but I found that with camera in hand and concentrating on the photo, the phobia seemed to disappear, this was in my back garden on a very hot day, taken with my 24mm-200mm lens, I so would like to buy a proper macro lens and it is high on my shopping list, thanks for your compliments on all my photos it is so very much appreciated

Yeah, I know how ya feel, I have had that same phobia and with the same result once I'm behind the camera and looking through that view finder, that phobia fades away and I'm all about trying to capture that shot. Too weird, but kind of nice at the same time. :lol: :lol:
I too would like to get a really nice Macro lens. I love the details that we can get with them that other wise pretty much go un-noticed by most folks. So, I guess it must be our job/calling to present those details and beauty of God's creation to a world that is otherwise to busy or self absorbed to take notice, eh? Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it..... :rofl:
As far as your photos, you're quite welcome. I comment on photos that move me in some way or another and obviously yours are among that group and I can really appreciate your perspective, your way of viewing things and presenting them, so thank you very much for sharing that with us David.
