Book of love and all that blah…

For many people love is a lot like this picture here. The thought behind it is very good but it is just not as beautiful and perfect as you imagined it would be. Somewhere the execution of the brilliant idea is flawed, you can blame it on deficient equipment – no pun indented – or whatever.

Is the picture so bad? I would say it serves its purpose as long as the person for whom it was made feels that it is beautiful and realises that this is something unique only she is getting, plus there is always a chance that you can make it better with more efforts.

However if you are not the adventurous kind you can play safe opt for the conventional kitsch kind of presentation, which will get you errr… ummm… the mediocre in return

Hope everyone is enjoying the Valentines Day πŸ˜‰

On the more material front: We are adding a makeup table in the room adjacent to the studio – it will not be much but will serve the purpose, got very bright shades of nail polishes and lipsticks yesterday. Mirror will be added soon.

  • I don’t know what you’re talking about… the pic looks brilliant to me and is currently set as my wallpaper πŸ™‚

    thanks for the smile. A very happy Valentines Day to you & Swati! πŸ™‚ *hugs*

    • Thanks *hugs back*

      The image is not lighted the exact way I wanted and the depth of field is not what I wanted πŸ™‚

  • Hi! I think the idea is wonderful and so is the picture. Though the positioning is not completely symmetrical, I think it makes the photo more interesting. If it was perfect, it may not have been obvious as to what it was. The “aha” moment one has when one realizes how it is done is what makes the picture special.

    I’ve have been reading your posts and I think you are a neat photographer!

    Recently started reading her poetry. Could not understand much of what she has to say about photography. But it reminds of your photographs.

    • Thanks – thats the most awesome compliment I have received πŸ™‚
