Thanks Ric,
The man in the suit got up a few minutes later and walked somewhere in
the park to surprise someone with a large bouquet of roses. I didn't
see them when I took the photo so I don't know where he was hiding
them. Possibly in the stroller?

The symmetry shot was difficult because it had me up in the bushes to
get the composition right. Shooting with a normal on square is still a
bit more narrow than a normal on 35mm due to the latter being wider.
I'm used to that so the square composition is something I'm going to
have to work myself back into. I haven't shot 6x6 in maybe 4 years.

Thanks for your kind words.

Phil Forrest
