So what would you suggest to correct the mistake of focus for dual portrait ? Close a bit more the aperture or make them being in the same strict line at 90° to your lens ?

Incredible photography. I'm glad you said what you said about taking the cliche shots. I've never been in the "don't take the cliche shots" camp. Idc if its been photographed a thousand times. None of those photos are mine. I want my own photo of it, even if it looks similar to someone else's.

Wonderful video Bryan. You have a great group of photography buds there. You not only made some great images, but it looks like you made a ton of great memories as well. Your choice of music was fitting for these landscapes. Glacier is on my photography bucket list. Your video just cemented why i want to get there.

Another great video. I was able to live in Bozeman for about 5 years while going to MSU. It was a great time and would do it again in a heartbeat. There is so much to explore in Montana. I am happy you were able to have a great time, and you should definitely go back and see more of it.

100% on taking the cliche shot. Even if you don't "use" it, its nice to have your own copy with your own memory. I used to be against doing that and have completely changed my tune. Grab the main one quick, then I can feel free to spend the rest of my time looking for those unique angles.
