Here’s to grab shots | Wedding 365#153

It’s photographically pretty dark. I’m in a corridor lit by a handful of downspots, so pools of light are patchy at best. We’re mid reception at a Berkshire wedding venue called The Forbury. I’m walking one way, the bride; the other. Roughly where we cross I spot two guests lost in their own moment. Fortunately my prime is primed, if you like. At F1.4 with ISO cranked to 4000, I’d bet without looking that I’d have the shutter speed to cope with an impending grab shot. Less than a second later this impromptu show of affection is spent and with it the bride’s movement and her engaging glace. Here’s to grab shots. He who dares…

SHOOTING DATA: Canon 5DMk2, EF24mm, F1.4, 1/125, ISO 4000, exposure compensation -1/3
