We arrived back at the Selinunte archaeological park and started walking the quarter mile up to the main temple of Hera. Sticking out of the trees was the back end of a white limousine-a Bentley or a Rolls. I said to Jeanne Marie, "There's a wedding party here for pictures." And so there was. I'm afraid I acted like a kid in a candy store. It was just too much fun. See what you think.

We and the wedding party had the whole place to ourselves and the light was as beautiful as the bride. I'm just going to run through the whole shoot right here. No need for a slide show at the end. This is the story.

I think she was having fun too.

About here I remembered that I was here to capture the great evening light. I turned around and saw this pile of rubble so I took a picture of it and then went back to the wedding party. It was just tooo much fun. _8507646 _8507653 _8507657 _8507664 _8507665 _8507670 _8507674 _8507675 _8507681

One more kiss then back in the limo. Just as well. The park was closing in 20 minutes so I had to get what I came here for. Just then I noticed the nearly full moon rising over the temple. As you progress through these images you will see the light get better with each shot. Then go back to the last post and compare them. You will see why photographers love this kind of light.  _8507688-Edit _8507696 _8507697 _8507699 _8507703 _8507706 _8507708 _8507722 _8507731 _8507738 _8507741 _8507743 _8507750 _8507755

The entire shoot took one hour fifteen minutes.
