Photo Marathon: Solidarity

Once again, another somewhat failed image. I think that I zoomed too far out, it would have looked a lot better if the hands were larger in the frame. Also, I might have asked them to separate them a little but I think that might have worked better too. I guess I need to work on how to direct people a bit better and experiment with layouts before I press the shutter. In addition, I'm pretty new to the use of this flash, so it doesn't look quite how I expected it. We had just finished eating at a nice French restaurant, and had some pretty decent Chilean red wine (Malbec), so we were quite festive!

Feel free to post critiques...keeping in mind that I only had ONE shot at each of these images! And also, I'm not just showing the good, but also the bad and the ugly :-)
