(show more)Took Pye's advice and added a full CTO gelled flash behind the couple to be able to bring out the blue in the sky and to further seperate them from the horizon line. Another flash was used as the main light at camera right. (show less)
Wow! Beautiful! You must be very pleased! Well done! Look out for ‘blown hair’. Check your LCD and I bet this area was ‘blinking’. Solution: reduce flash power/move flash slightly/get her to pull her hair back etc etc. Nice overall! Dave
SETTINGS: Not a huge issue with a D4s I doubt but I wonder if they could have held still for 2 Seconds (one full stop) and therefore decrease ISO to 1600 (one full stop) to preserve dynamic range….so many things to consider!! Love the shot. Dave
Very nice! Good Job

Look to even up exposure in Post Production here. Its bright compared to the left side as we look at it. Dave
I can see the tripod legs……if this is printed, so will they! Dave
This spill is a bit distracting here, I would decrease it or light paint to even it out.
The clouds look a bit muddy, and the sky overall has a bit of highlight drain.
Perfect use of a backlight! I think you could have brought the subjects in closer and then the flare would have been even more dramatic.
