2009 February Project: Love

[Alison]

In light of Valentine's day I thought "Love" would make a perfect project for February

It can be anything from, a couple on a park bench, kissing pictures, hugging pictures, touching pictures, families, cuddling pets, wedding pictures, to valentine card designs etc.

Let's get creative! Show me some lovin' people lol. :thumbsup:

Ok so you don't shoot people? Not a problem. Here's another idea :thumbsup:

Not an original idea, but a photo I took for my photography club's February assignment, which is also "love".

Here's another. This one is from a couple years ago when my friends (the couple on the bench) came down for a visit.

My daughter picked these and was so excited to give them to me. Love at it's best.

A little story to back this one up. I took this at the child's (Tristan) baptism this past September. His parents are both friends of mine. The church that this was done in has a tradition of passing the child onto a member of the congregation (usually said person is asked before hand), as a symbol of welcoming the child into the church family.

Except in this case, the gentleman in the choir was not told, as he is the child's great grandfather.

I love Arcadia ... I love a sunburnt country.





I like this image because it takes me back to a time of when I was a student and I would shoot a Polaroid 5x4 before exposing a 5x4 Tri-X or Plus-X.

So often I'd pull the polaroid sheet film through the rollers only to get uneven development (most likely the developer pods were still frozen) and forgot to wipe the smelly little pink spreader of fixer/varnish over the pos and neg and it would go brown or pink within hours. No doubt some photographers will relate to having done this exact same thing with Polaroid sheet film.

35 years ago I first shot this property using a Polaroid film back with 52 or 58(?) film ... and it is exactly how I remember it ... brown and still unfixed. This more recent image is like a time machine ... I also love that photography is timeless.

Warren.

This is beyond beautiful. What a perfect pic.

[JETA]

Your pic makes me sad Frog. To me it says addiction.

[Alison]

LOL @ Canuck.
It's a gorgeous shot. I am so pleased you shared it because it's the first time I have seen it.
