I have stared and stared at the image of the young man lighting the candle and cannot for the life of me tell what this is a photo of...I think I see a hand on the left hand side, probably lighting a candle, but I don't see a face, head, body, or anything else - just candles and an enormous amount of out-of-focus material on the left hand side. And the shot of the bride is simply a shot of somebody from behind...no pastor, no sense of what the bride is doing, or really where she is. I fear that both these images are examples of the 'you had to be there' school of photography, in which the photographer believes that because he witnessed something happening, the viewer of the photo will see that same thing, even though it isn't visible in the photo. Maybe I am really missing something here, in which case I apologize for my vision problems - but I don't think I am. B. D. "Jerry S.
