Month of Hearts #3

My mom and sister created a heart themed birthday basket for me when I turned 50 back in June. This was one of the many things inside!

[Milanie]

How fun to have your family in with your project. I have always been intrigued by the many different hearts you continue to come up with

[Taffy]

I like that you included the spool with the ribbon 'falling out' of it. Well composed.

[Chris Johnson]

Loving that depth of field. What a pretty pattern and great gift.

[Islandgirl]

HaHa they must know you collect hearts!

[Kathy]

I really like the pattern and textures in this photo. Probably not nearly as obvious in color.

[KWind]

@randystreat The hearts really are black! I didn't convert it.

[Kathy]

@kwind I thought it might be since the color of the spool seemed so desaturated. Cool.

[Karly]

I always love your heart images. Beautifully shot and so creative.

[JudithTB]

Love this, great dof and focus

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I'm not sure how many years you've been doing this (I know I've seen a couple Februarys' worth of hearts at least!) but you must have 100's of hearts by now! I can easily see you incorporating this ribbon on to one of your driftwood trees or something like that. Nice shot!
