3.06 - "Solid" 

I was passing through the church to get home after work and saw the wedding being celebrated inside and this old man whose name is Catello waiting outside, I had my Fuji X-Pro1 with me along with the tiny 35mm, took it out of the bag, adjust settings on the fly and try and frame it without him to realise, 2-3 attempts, some cropping and there you go, a very controversial scene of a supposed to be happy occurrence with a very sad expression on the other hand

I absolutely love this shot! I gave it a 4, and I think the only reason I didn't give a 5 is I'm not sure I can piece together a proper link between the contrasting scenes. He looks exhausted, on the verge of giving up, but the happy scene inside...I think I'd have given a 5 if it was say a funeral - but regardless, I still love the "unknown" element of me not being able to properly piece things together! Great effort!
