I wish the weather was still like this

I don’t know where to begin in describing this photo. It was one of those moments when a magical scene unfolded with the most amazing light. Snapping this shot I wasn’t too sure if I had nailed the focus or not. Shooting with medium format at f/2 is often a real challenge so when I got the scan back I was really disappointed at first. I had missed the focus on the couple and got it slightly behind them. But over the past week I’ve flicked past this shot a few times and it has started to grow on me. The slight out of focus doesn’t bother me too much, I still get the same feeling when I look at the photo as I did when I saw it in my head. I especially love the father and son on the left hand side and the color pallet of the whole scene. Let me know what you think. Contax 645, Zeiss Planar T* 80mm f/2, Fuji Pro 400H film.
