June 5 2004:
Timeless Tradition

Looks like it was someone’s special day today. I spotted a horse and landau carriage about to leave somebody’s house, with what looked like a bride and groom.

So I lied in wait and soon they came trotting past. I had somehow set my camera to 1/50 second but then again that just helped achieve the old time look!

Isn't that Chris driving the carriage?! ;)

Nice shot, Ray!

I'll bet the carriage drivers would love a copy of this shot. The background motion adds the perfect touch. This is great.

Wonderful shot Ray, accidental or not, your shutter speed was definietely right here - the motion blur in the background is just right for that old photo feel.

Very nice catch - well worth the wait! The monochrome adds to the retro feel of the image.

What great fun. Good planning to lay in waiting to get this shot. Yes, it is quite nostalgic.
