Gigs Rowland

Des Moines IA Botanical Center

This man proposed to this woman (got down on his knee and asked her to marry him) just after I took this photo. (This couple was about 80 feet from where I was sitting, so I was at full zoom with 2 flash devices at full power)

I really enjoyed taking photos with the new gear, check out all the colorful flowers and the other engaging people:

I just took the 1 photo, from about 80 feet away. With all the people taking pictures, no one seemed to mind. . . The proposal took place right in front of me and I refrained from intruding on such a personal moment. . . I did have to clean up some red eye, so I know the flash was effective. . . Gigs

Very nice shot with the TCON, Gigs. Wow - full flash, huh? Not very stealthy then. Did they notice your flash/camera was aimed at them?
