Immerse Yourself In A Romantic Book by Allison

Immerse Yourself In A Romantic Book

Admittedly I'm not a romantic novel type of girl, but I do love non fiction books, especially jewelry making books.....I can sit and pour over different techniques for hours, and I have so many I'm running out of room, but probably only have a couple of photography books, and the little bit of technique I know, I've learned here :-)

Also a big thank you for the lovely response on my roses photo.......it was so unexpected......you're all so kind and sweet......thank you!!!!!
Love this, so romantic and pretty.

Love, love this sleepy rose - how you continually get these romantic and oh so graceful shots just amazes me. So, so pretty !!!!
February 2nd, 2014  
don't know what type of book you used :) but the effect suits the title perfectly, felt like reading something romantic... :)

What a wonderful still life. The lighting is superb. No romantic novels on my bookcase either and somewhat surprisingly, no jewellery books. Surprising because until 18 months ago I ran a jewellery company for 21 years! Fav for your gorgeous photo.

At least you got a few good shots out of them, LOL the pics I took of a lovely bunch of white and pink carnations came out so poorly - LOL they looked like cheap plastic flowers. So, so much to learn :)
February 3rd, 2014  
Fabulous composition, such a beautiful shot
February 3rd, 2014  
Such lovely composition.
I have a whole wall of books behind me, and hardly any of them are fiction. Except the Harry Potter shelf, obviously. ;)
February 3rd, 2014  
Wow! trending page!
February 3rd, 2014  
How can you not be romantic when you do this and that tea cup shot the other day? You're nearly as soft as me!

@humphreyhippo ..........obviously!
February 3rd, 2014  
@vega aww I bet they look better than you're giving yourself credit for :-)
@roseolivia many thanks Rachel :-)
@humphreyhippo the rose is bugging me.....it's too far off to the left, and in the wrong spot, but my windowsill is narrow and I was trying to balance it all, and lean back.....I must have looked very odd ;-) I love Harry Potter...they were showing the marathon last weekend......I like to think I was watching it to keep Aaron company, but he was doing his own thing :-)
@bill_fe thank you Bill :-)
@bluefirebucket I'm really not.....never have been......probably why I'm single.......of course it has nothing to do with me lol
February 3rd, 2014  
Another beautiful composition and processing!Really makes me feel romantic!
February 4th, 2014

Beautiful capture, Allison, and the single rose definitely adds a romantic sentiment. You should submit this to Shutterstock!

I grew up reading romance novels, and this is such a lovely and tasteful interpretation.:) I caught a little something about Sister Jenna and Norman? :) Your shot is an inspiration to me, and is motivating me to think of book shot ideas! Fav.
