An Engagement?


We went down to the Dunkin' beach this afternoon, just to go for a walk.  I had my camera with me with a long telephoto lens on it.  We saw this couple walking by along the walk dressed formally, toward "The Tree" and when they got there they set up a phone on a stand, and started doing either still photographs or videos of themselves.  They didn't appear to be part of a wedding.


I became fascinated with what they were doing and of course snapped a few photographs when I thought they were doing something interesting.


We sat down on a bench off to the right of the tree, and that's when I got this photograph.  She is clearly showing him her ring, and I am guessing this is the day they got engaged!  What a nice thing to see them taking photographs of themselves to have memories of their engagement day.

Enjoying a day at the beach and then witnessing happy moments of this young couple, what more can you ask for. It brings a smile to my face.

You were in the right place at the right time! Nice to see that they took their own photos to remember their special engagement.
