Thank you again for everyone who voted and commented on yesterday's upload.
Today continues with the Wedding theme. The image is of our daughter in law (who is French Moroccan) sitting in the traditional sedan type chair which is carried by 4 bearers into the reception hall. The groom is also carried in on a similar platform without the canopy.
The Bride and Groom are married in the traditional wedding dress and suit as in the UK but during the reception the bride has 6 changes of costume and the groom 3 changes, all very colourful and certainly a different experience from a traditional British wedding.
The photograph is as it came out of the camera with only a little cropping and using the built in flash only

You have captured this very well with just built in flash, only a tiny bit of it noticed on the carriage, a grand portrait and sounded like an expierence not to be missed ! Thanks for sharing Colin

Now that's how to get married in style! I like the way the sedan and canopy frame the picture. Just delightful.
