The Photo I Wish I Took

I was in Rome for a majority of this break because two of my roommates from Rhode Island came to visit. This meant that for most of the week I was running around showing them all of the sights. One day in the middle of the afternoon me and one of my roommates were walking from the forum up the stairs of the monument to Vittorio Emanuele II. After climbing all of the stairs, we looked up and saw a beautiful bride in her flowing white dress and her proud new husband. Suddenly, a group of eight or nine year olds who were on a school trip turned around and started screaming how beautiful the bride was. I wish I captured the moment of the children surrounding the newly wed couple grabbing their hands and telling the bride how beautiful she was. One would think that this could make the couple upset because they were trying to get their professional photos taken, but they welcomed the little kids with open arms. It was a great moment to see and I wish I could have taken everyone in one of their happiest moments.

I would use a 5.6 or under for depth and I would have taken a horizontal photograph. I would have also had to use a a low iso because it was very bright out. My wide angle would have worked out really well.
