    Spooky! Especially in the setting it was taken….could read a lot into this one in terms of metaphores….you know…”the day was just a blur of happiness”...hehe

  • Damian

    Damian

    Hi Dee, hehe, nice, I like that – “blur of happiness”!

  • memory

    memory

    Wonderful effects, creepy vibe. Something about the heavy decor of the interior makes this the perfect backdrop for a story involving some kind of ghostly tale.

  • Damian

    Damian

    Thanks Katrina! The location certainly had atmosphere that would make for a great ghost story lol! The whole place has more of a rustic/rural homestead feel to it, but this passage was great.

    Thanks kaylarenee!

    Thanks Michelle!

  • Damian

    Damian

    Hey Kym, glad you like it :)
    That’s funny about it feeling surreal! There’s no time to think about it in the lead up, and none at all on the day, so it’s only after that you get time to ponder LOL!

  • Damian

    Damian

    Cheers Kalb, glad you like it! This place was just oozing atmosphere.

    Thanks Basia, I like that ‘spooky yet beautiful’ :)

    Very fast at times Glen, cheers!

  • Damian

    Damian

    Thanks Jessica :)

    Hi Leia, thanks! This idea was something I wanted to try as soon as I saw the passageway LOL! The poor bride was spun into dizziness and had to have a couple of pauses to recover from me saying ‘that’s great, now spin so the veil flies out’! heheh.

  • Susan Trigg

    Susan Trigg

    Very effective – my first thought when I saw this was that the bride was a sort of dream or an intangible that he couldn’t hold on to, as in joy just a fleeting moment

  • Damian

    Damian

    Thank you Susan, that’s wonderful! I’m sure she’s more of the dream than the intangible in reality, but I love that take on it.

  • Rob  McDonald

    You should enter this into the Chllenge Cafe competition for Motion.

  • Damian

    Damian

    Thanks Rob, and yep, certainly used a tripod. Just a bit too dark to try this as a hand-held!

    Thanks Dave, I really wanted to try and get a nice swirl from these shots!

    Hi skunk, thanks for the heads up, I’ll go have a look!

    long-exposure capture looks especially great in this hotel-like kind of environment where people come and go. this produces a really ghostly look. great capture, Damian. thank you for taking interst in my works. cheers! Nikolay
