Brilliant again, and what a hard decision for your Daughter, if i was to pick out of the two i would go for the first one.

Thank you Senn, Maria and Trixie- We keep changing our minds, in the end we may use both to different guests, framed A2 sized prints would then be put up on display at the venue with a detailed explanation of the symbolism within each one.

Another good work. The cat is a cunning idea.

Thanks- well, everyone likes a kitten- even me and I'm allergic to cats! It took me hours to recover.........
Cheers, Gary

I think I prefer this to the previous one Gary, but they are both excellent.

Thanks again David- A similar setup used with this one but with the added complication of capturing the moving kitten and the correct exposure of the candle flames on the candelabra.
Cheers, Gary

This seems to work better than the previous (which IMHO lends itself more to a square crop). Great details

I like the both version. The candle flames are wonderful in this shot, the expression of the cat and the soap bubbles are very impressive in the other one.
On the whole I prefer the previous one.

Splended. Kitten is an excellent addition. It's brings something "extra special" to the picture.

I love both, but I prefer the first since the cat has a more complicated and lovelier move and appear to be better focused, but as you know it is only a matter of personal taste.

Superb image. I prefer this one as a wedding invite to the other, the other would be very suitable for other purposes though.
