Love doesn't grow on trees

Love doesn't grow on trees like apples in Eden - it's something you have to make. And you must use your imagination too.

Well, here's my flash of red. I'm not really satisfied with this little still life. It just lays there. If, by any chance, I come up with another flash of red picture with more soul or excitement, I may move this to my alternates album.

Love the selective color! What a beautiful shot!

[Mary Siegle]

@luvmynynix Thanks, Laurie.

[Lisa Poland]

Fabulous! Great composition!

[Leanne M Williams]

Awwwww.....that is so beautiful :-)

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

Lovely shot indeed. I might have to do something heart-ish myself today.

[Richard Sayer]

We-ell, you could argue that love is such an important part of our lives that it can't just be merged into the surroundings. If you believe that, then your composition is spot on.

@homeschoolmom @leanne333 @steampowered @vignouse Lisa, Leanne, Paul, Richard. Thank you so much for your kind comments. Richard, I think your argument is spot on. True love is, indeed, something that doesn't fade into the background of our lives. Thank you for saying that so well.

[David Lee]

very high quality atmospheric image, worthy of a valentines card

[Dawn Moder]

Love it! Fav!

[JoAnn]

love this shot! fav

[Mary Siegle]

@leephotoofyork @38dcmoder @cruzer David, Dawn, and JoAnn, thank you so much for the comments. I guess I needed to take another, kinder, look at this shot. I don't know what I was expecting or hoping for, but I SO appreciate knowing that others really like it. Not going to try to replace it now. David, I'm really pleased that you consider it worthy to go on a valentine. Dawn and JoAnn for the FAVs.
