Valentine's Day

It is THAT day, but Sue has had some decs up for some time. On a shelf above the tv we have red hearts and other red things along with a snowman and some strip lighting (and a speaker). Since this is about the coldest time of year in Canada, I think the juxtaposition of the snowman is trés appropos.

There is nothing like being kissed by an angel on Valentine's Day ... or any day, really.

This cute little dish has been out for awhile now. Danica likes the heart candy with messages. JJ doesn't like most candy. I tell him that he is a lucky fellow.

Both above and below are focus stacked: actually the angles too. When you get close, it is difficult to get all parts of the subject in focus, so you change the focus on a series of shots. You then let Photoshop choose blend the various images to attain the sharpest result throughout.

Yes, do be mine.

The last image was taken with an extender to get me closer as I don't have a true macro lens.

I used the two candy dish images in my card to Sue.
