 You know how they always have those really cool shots at weddings with the sun behind the lovely couple, bleeding through at a lovely low angle, and a reflector or lights in front to keep the couple nicely lit even with all that backlighting? Well, THIS is why you hire a professional, not me, to shoot your wedding. This isn't even the lovely couple - it's a young man in a suit. And he's on a roof. And there's no foreground lighting. And the flare may be a tad overcooked... But it was a blast!

P.S. Many thanks to Johanna for the loan of the 70D. I had two cameras, four lenses, and a second shooter with two cameras and three lenses. And the lovely couple probably still should have hired a professional.

Is this a new Academy Award statuette? But I cannot think of a film deserving. An annunciation, perhaps. Nice lines.
