Dominick- Fantastic MT. This couple sure did have a romantic place to be passionate in. Your night photography is always such a trhill to see as your talent for bring out the glow and the lights, but with such percise details is always amazing. Love the composition. The lights, the glow on the water, the rail, the arches are all spectacular. In particular I love the steeple in the upper cornor and the whiteness of it. To me it gives just the right among of color balance and is a special bonus to the look of the picture.Karim Abiali May 20, 2009
