This is the same girl who can be seen here, before she sat down to have a read (and no I wasn't stalking her, they just happened to be there!) I didn't like how the actual shot came out, it seemed to focus weirdly, but I like it in B&W!
Up in Scotland again for a while so responses might take some time! Comments are always welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

Sometimes the weird shots do make the best BWs. This one has a lot of depth (in terms of story-telling). Kind of a spiritually journalistic image. I like it.

@Viewfinder: Thanks Viewfinder
Never mind the focus. I think it works, at least for me. Great moment captured.
Sometimes it makes sense just to aim and shoot, because by the time you stop to spot meter off a highlight and then apply exposure compensation and then set auto bracketing on and then shoot...well...you know what can happen :):)

@Sujit Sudhi: Yep, the quick shots are often, if not always the best!
I can see why, it's fantastic ;)

Very nice shot and yes the focus is a little off, but I like the way it focused on the altar.

@e.: Thanks e.
I loveeeeeeee b&w. I like the composition of this shot, although i would have prefer the people to be in focus, rather than the pulpit.

@MaryB: Thanks MaryB
I like the perceived story with the couple approaching the altar. I'm a little iffy about the lack of sharpness but really love the b/w. Hmmm, methinks I'm torn.
