Love working with pairs. It can be challenging to get the right look from both of them at the same time....but whan you do, it's magic. Great work Dave. Love the framing and presentation you have done with all these sets. Here are some of my pairs.

Gorgeous stuff, Allen, and I agree that it's often difficult to get all the elements in sych to get the shot. Part of the challenge and fun, I think. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Take the Duane and Jamie image for example. I was able to position them in the boathouse, but it was during one of the darker moments of that day. So much so, in fact, that I had to bump my ISO to 1600 just to get in a shooting range -- and even then it was 1/60th at f/2.8 with a 70-200mm lens. Non-IS too, naturally. Add to that there were about 3 other groups shooting in that tiny space already and you really get a picture at how much the odds were against us to get a good image! LOL

But for me, that's what photography can be all about too. Getting that workable image in less than desireable conditions. Of the 8-10 frames I clicked off, 3 were sharp enough to keep me happy.

Thanks again,
Dave
