"Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreaming each night of his charms
That won't get you into his arms

So if you're lookin' to find love you can share
All you gotta do is
Hold him and kiss him and love him
And show him that you care

Show him that you care just for him
And do the things he likes to do
Wear your hair just for him, 'cause
You won't get him
Thinkin' and a-prayin'
Wishin' and a-hopin'

Just wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreamin' his kiss is the start
That won't get you into his heart

So if you're thinkin' heartbreak
True love is
All you gotta do is
Hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and love him
Yeah, just do it and after you do, you will be his..."

hahaha...Well it's "The Day" and am here with my post just to wish all my TL friends A Very Happy Valentine's Day!!!!! May you all cherish the love in your entire life. Here in this shot I've used my coffee cup to place the rose( have used red rose as KBE suggested;) ) my diary and pen.

Very nice use of PP to blur the surroundings of this rose and keep the inner petals sharp.

A shame maybe that you cut off the top of the rose, maybe a slightly wider view would've been even better?

I like the style and the mood of this.

Rew

Hi Shubhi

Burak

Happy Valentines to You Shubhi!!!
Yes, Cupid was stupid when he shot me with the arrow once, his mistake is that I shot him back when it didn't work out!!! LOL I like the effect you chose with the out of focus cup and the bright and deep rich color of the red rose. Love is in the air in your home...

Great presentation Shubhi, I wish there is a bit space on the top nevertheless a stunning composition and impressive result. Well composed.

Happy Valentines to you.

Buddy

hello Shubhi
how are you doing?
nice idea and execution
ilike the pp work shubhi
fine sharpness and good details. i like this soft forground as well.
ek kaam karo agar raw shot mein rose poora nahi hai to jo hissa pankhudi ka crop ho raha hai, uske tip ko background wall se clone kar do, taki wo frame ko touch nahi kare.
samjhi...

Hi Dear Shubhi

Great shallow depth of field resulting 3D dimension in this shot.
Lovely rose for valentine's day, professional composition, BRAVO
Happy Valentine to you :))

Regards, ALIREZA

Hi Shubhi,
Like the soft focus effect in this picturee, it creates a nice mood. The core of the rose is perfect sharp. Maybe a tighter crop would improve the view. Anyway a fine posting for TL!
Hans

Good morning Shubhi,
