Love that movie and the Dixie Chic song, but your image has been added to that of my favorites as well. This is so awesome. I love the mood from the fog and the BW really adds to that. The way the dress was captured is brilliant and you have composed this so very well. Now what I would really like to know. Was this a wedding portrait or something you were doing for fun, and were there a lot of passing cars that looked at you like you were crazy? LOL.....

I value all your comments so very much! Thank you!! Darren...your post is very appreciated and I am honored that you would add this to your list of favorites. Thank you! No, this was not a wedding portrait. Don't know if I'll ever be able to handle weddings. And there were passing cars that I'm sure thought we were crazy...particularly at 6a.m in the morning on I91S in Vermont! Greetings Murry! Thanks you!! I am so delighted you approve! In all honesty, I wasn't basing this image on the movie (and I do forget how it ends actuallY)...just a title that I thought sounded catchy. I'll need to watch it again. THank you K!! My...what wonderful adjectives and a beautiful comment. Thank you so much for taking the time to view my work! Hello Gaby...I appreciate your confidence in this image. And that compliment is one of the best I've ever had! Along with all the other comments I have received here today! Have a good day!
