Description
The garer goes around the leg of a female to hold up the leggings up[ I do not know if I spelled garer right so that why I put this wording on it]
Here you see the groom takeing off the garer[hope i spell right]. In this next of the woods that what the groom do he take off the garer and stands and throws it backwards as the single men stands and try to caught the garer.
I saw the forus is on the bride and groom which it should be. I say this is art so why not have a pulling contest of focus points. Those boys in the back really do not show up in the photo so I cut and paste them on another layer then I past them thought the xero line filter.
Now I got a contest going on the point of veiw. You tell me if this is good or not to have a contest of point of veiw?
thanks for looking and comments and votes.

fanatsic image and excelllent:)
I right now just finishing up all the photos i took at the wedding and recipicion[misspelled lol] Took me over 4 hours to fix all the photos I going to give them a cd of them.
Splendid and very creative realization Jock...!!! Excellent postwork.....!!!
Cool work! Nice shot plus neat effect on the lower image! Good work!!
the garter i s essential. for the stocking mr jocko... winks and blushes .. beautiful :)
Removing the gar(t)er is an odd custom, especially among more conservative crowds, I have always wondered how it has come to be...I like it! Hell, a burlesque show would be fun too! ; ) Love how you isolated the children in the shot! Very creative!!
The garter is symbolic of the bride's underwear and by extension her virginity. In older times, the groom would take the bride to a bedroom adjoining the wedding reception; there he would take her clothing away, then take away her virginity. And all this while the wedding guests waited on the other side of the door! When the marriage was consumated (i.e., after the couple made love for the first time), the bride would dress in different clothing and return with her husband to the reception. Nowadays we just reduce the whole thing to the groom removing a single garter; the guests let their imaginations fill in what will happen later.
i don't uderstand the text! But i think there is grain , (maybe it's an effect ,i don't undrestand all), but for the grain if you want less use Neat image :the demo version is terrible !
I'd say the most important focus point is created by the three nearest persons focusing onto her garter. I agree to take out the boys. IMHO
the grain is there because my flash did not go off and the image was dark so I use levels in the photoshop to bring up the image you see othewise it would being almost black. When you bring a photo from black you will get a lot of grain. Maybe there a way to do it with out the graning but I do not know it yet.
Bummer about the flash no going off Jock. Nicely rescued though!!!
I caught a garter once at a wedding because basically it hit me. smelled of perfume. interesting post work. try a free series of filters that is called Mehdi. they have a couple that is real good for bring up the lighting
Hello, thanks for all yours pleasants comments,we don't make the same kind of picture, but we love the photography and it's that the principal!RR is very interesting for this, because we can meet a lot of differents photograph which show their own vision of their passion! Excuse my bad english!!! Have a great evening
The kids in the background got my attention. It reminded me of "Beam me up Scotty". Excellent.. Aloha
What a beautiful photo of a joyous occassion!!
Someone seems to have fun here! I remember this part as well! It is an excellent scene!
I don't know Jock. I like the first one better. My eyes automatically went from the bride 'n' groom to the children. Interesting play though! V (:
I like the idea of having the b/w people around like in the last image I saw of yours. Superb stuff Jocko :)
The top one, in color and depth, is too good to trash. Work with the grain perhaps, instead of against, maybe selectively bumping. The light straight through behind the small figures on both sides of the central one is the whole deal as far as depth and message is concerned, with the kids wondering what the heck is going on contrasted with the devilish sauciness of the female, and embarassed operating table seriousness of the two stiffs (THEY are being WATCHED, hehe). Forget the B&W and greyscale. It's a puzzle missing one piece to become great....Careful of them garter mocs. UNDERWEAR? With all the ersatz turtle solemnity and hyprocrisy going own, one could have at least come up with sumthin jazzy and K. Jamesey--"And the GROOM shall remove the BRIDE'S NETHERGARMENTS and KNOW her, waving the BLOODY SHEET and leading her to the KITCHEN SINK....", and SHE will giggle at his MIGHTY SWORD, or sumthin' like that, and seven out of ten will divorce in seven years. And they will get remarried and eight of ten will divorce again in 2 years. And they will WED again and again and again and the Churches and Synagogues shall profit of it MIGHTILY, yassuh....Garters hold stockings up, and always have, including men's and in collectively idiotic solidarities like the ORDER of the GARTER....
very good idea my heart.. excellent composition in this b&w children... you're my best!!! Big kiss and good week ;)
Hello!!Fantastic idea!!I love all two versions of these splendid images!!Excellent work my dear friend!!My sincere compliments for your extraordinary talent and for your big skill!!Well done!!V!!I wish you a excellent new week!!A big hug!!
Too bad the noise showed up but I know it's hard, my scanned slides do act up in a similar way. Original wedding capture! :)
I like the top one and I like the grain, it gives it an air of uniqueness, different from the usual wedding photo. Very nice!
Yeh, as for an amateur like me you did it great! Funny, here we use to sell the garter! It's a way of the new couple do some money! And also use to cut the grooms tie in little, little pieces and sold it too! Anyway, you did an excellent work!
It's garter and yes, we do it here, too. I did it once back in 1974. Where did the years go???? Now my husband and I are getting old, LOL!
I really like both images. You can't help but notice the cute little boys expressions waiting to catch the Garter,lol! I never tire at looking at wedding images. They are a cute couple! :)
I wish I was one of those boy's !!! nice one Jock ~Cheers~ :o)
The second shot with the kids is a bit eiry for me...
A very fine wedding image and very well done postwork!
i like the above pic best.
