Love is in the Air

So I'm sure everyone knows that Valentine's Day is coming up.  I'm trying to get all cute and figure out something cute-like and original to take "love-related" photos of.  There are the candy hearts...  they are adorable and mark my words, I will do it, but at the same time, so will everyone else. 

Leave me alone with my thoughts for 5 minutes and I start to play with my daughters doll house.  I should really get out of the house more.  And buy some candy hearts.

 

Let's get passed the awkwardness and talk technical, shall we?  This is shot at ISO400, f2.8, 1/100.  Probably could have closed up my aperture a bit, but let's face it, probably could have come up with something different (read: better) altogether.  

Am I the only one who is stumped photographically with "love"? (other than the stupid hearts that I will go get immediately and shoot)

    Great concept! I really, really like it... it reminds me of pop art in some way???

    I much prefer the subtlety of this love photo to red and pink hearts! And welcome to the blog world. It looks like you are off to a wonderful start... beautiful banner, great sense of humor, excellent! (followed you from your comment at Darcy's:)

    WOW - I'm so honored that you started your blog out with one of my photography challenges! I love your creativity here. I agree with you about your aperture - or at least getting both of their faces into the same visual plane so that they are both within the depth of field. I'm sure you would rock the heart candy shot.
