Welcome to My Captured Moment, a weekly linky where I share my favourite ‘Captured Moments’ and invite you to do the same.
This isn’t the best photo we’ve ever taken but it does mean a lot to us. It was taken moments after Dom proposed to me with that Haribo ring. It was our tenth anniversary and to be honest I was beginning to think he was never going to get down on one knee. Well he did and it was perfect!
We were staying at a beautiful small hotel in the south of France and that night we had the place to ourselves. The owner had plans, so he made us a delicious dinner and left us to enjoy it in the beautiful candle lit garden. The table was set, music was playing and after dinner he finally popped the question and naturally I said yes.
After we got home we went ring shopping and I got my dream ring.
Share your Moments
Your ‘My Captured Moment’ can be a single picture or a series of shots, new (taken this week) or old, with or without words. The idea is to simply share a moment in time you’ve captured on your camera and make sure it doesn’t go unseen. This could include vintage shots of your own childhood and beyond or a simple picture you’ve recently taken and want to ‘show off’.

• Link up every Thursday to Sunday (ending at 11.55pm)
• Add my badge (or link back to my website using #MyCapturedMoment) at the bottom of your post.

Aww, what a lovely photo and a lovely moment to cherish. My husband took 12 years to propose and I was starting to wonder if it would ever happen too! x

Aww, it’s a lovely picture and a brilliant memory. It took Mr TB quite some time to pop the question too - seven years - but he did in it style when it came down to it

I don’t think I really gave him chance though! That said, we’ve been married for 14 years now so it doesn’t really matter!
