Taken while photographing a wedding this past weekend. The LDS Bishop who married the young couple set his book down on top of the Marriage License so it wouldn't blow away while they signed - to have the legal and Holy sides of marriage together like this seemed to make a good statement.

Nice idea, but the I think that it would have been more powerful with the words on the marriage certificate more defined and less washed out.

Nice photo -- it appears a little blown out though -- over-exposed -- I would have liked to be able to clearly see the text of the certificate.

Lighting is too strong. Setting a white balance/spot-metering would be useful to reduce overexposure or using a neutral desnity filter to even the tones. As an image though there isn't much interest.
