Tenderness

Arnold Arboretum - Boston

While doing an engagement shoot for this young couple, I noticed how beautiful their hands were, in the way they touched each other, even casually...it was as if it was their secret way of saying, "I love you". I couldn't resist a closeup...

Touch?
This is superb, I love the tenderness in it. I think that having the watches on display make it more real. Like it's a reality, it exists? I know what I mean, but I am having trouble saying it, tonight!!

I've wondered that myself, actually! Figured I could remove the watch on HER arm, easily enough--but that it would be more problematic on his arm...as it is--I can live with it, because of the symmetry of TWO watches--but yes, I was kicking myself afterwards that I hadn't asked them to remove them! :-/ Live and learn, right?! :-)

Nice idea and execution. I wonder about those watches though and what this would be like without them. Going B&W works well in this instance. - DC

This is such a clever idea and way to express tenderness. Lisafx
