    Default Candid Portrait

    I photographed a very small wedding last week for a friend and I got this shot of one of the guest there. He seemed kind of shy so we never did speak.
    I went a little extra on the PP.
    Thank you for viewing.

    I'll let others critique it. I love it just the way it is!

    Colour is lovely and sharpness is good overall.
    If it were mine, I would have shot this vertically and probably tried to coax a friendlier expression (because the goal was to photograph a wedding and normally the bride and groom want 'smilier' shots) from the dude . Hope that helps - Makro

    Thanks guys for the time to view and comment.
    As a stand alone portrait without any history of it as to where it was shot, I was happy with the way it turned out. But as Marko pointed out it's best to get happy pictures at a happy event. Something I should have done but didn't consider but will keep in mind in the future. A good reason for me to post here so I can hear the good and the bad and learn from them.
