Engagement

Palo Duro Canyon State Park, Texas

This picture was taken moments after I proposed to my fiancé. I brought her out to the canyon to "take pictures." My plan was to get on one knee and use my camera's remote control to capture her look of surprise. Well, I guess my camera bag wasn't as good of a hiding place for the ring as I thought it was, and she saw it before I could stop her. She was still surprised and happy though, and I got this shot of her excitement.
