A snap I took on the fly during a wedding ceremony

[Giovanni]

The main church where I live is on the way to home, by that time along my photography passion I wanted to like the Fuji ML system and with me in a bag there was the little X-Pro1 with the 35mm which allowed me to take this snap without being noticed, I am pretty proud of this not because of the quality because that's gear's but at how brave I was to take a few steps back and point the camera straight on this guy's face without to fear rejection (this is one of my big deals in life...)

This has a genuine candid feel, as if he never even knew you were there, Good job. Doing this while keeping focus and exposure and getting a decent composition is not all the camera gear but a large part is the photographer.

Excellent catch and the quality is fine as well.

He look so very sad to me, like he wasn't invited to the wedding but needed to be there . Very nice bringing out the emotion.

Hi Giovanni,

This is a really cool shot! The perfect composition too with the contrast of old/new in the one scene. I like that he isn't looking at the camera. I understand feeling a bit nervous about shooting someone so close. I felt the same thing when I was doing some street photography last weekend.

And yes, your quality is awesome here! That sounds like a great little camera to carry around with you.
