Dan... I was shooting between 4.8/1000 and 5.6/500 for the better part of a half an hour and wanted to get as much of their faces in focus as possible, while throwing the background out. The guy is my brother and the shots were planned as an engagement announcement series. I burned a roll of Kodak Gold 100 (which I gave to them for processing and haven't seen; supposedly they came out very well) and the Velvia that is on the web page. I'll be posting more shots from the Noct in the coming weeks. Thanks for your response! /Mitch
