Now this is setting the bar high!!!
oh how sweet! very nice entry!!!!!!
Nice work. The girl's fingers on the boy's back should be in shadow, and her hair shouldn't be so dark where it faces the light, but otherwise, you've done a good job with the lighting.
Nice idea and certainly apropos for Kate and Wills' wedding day. I'm going to have to disagree with MossyB about the lighting, however.
There are two visible light sources—the lantern (strong) and the moon (weak)—both of which are behind the couple which would make one expect them to be largely a silhouette. She is in fact largely a silhouette, but inconsistently, he is not. The strong lantern light seems to cast weak shadows of the couple, of the lower stair steps, of the rocks in the wall. Also, one would expect the wall to be very bright where it's only a foot or so from the lantern. Furthermore, you would think the far end of the overhang would get some lantern light while the near end would would be in shadow (as the lantern top is not clear) which is the opposite of what we find here.
The visible light sources cannot illuminate his face and hands, the top of the lantern, the wall above the overhang from which the lantern hangs, the ground immediately below the lantern (as its base is not clear). There are apparently other light sources, but it's odd that the brightness on his face doesn't result in any shadow on the steps, for example.
More generally, the large, dramatically lit wall distracts one's attention from the real focus of the kissing couple. Shadowy edges with lit center would be more compelling. Deleting the lantern and imagining a streetlight behind the viewer might be more effective.
Congrats again!!
congratulation!!!
