339/365 - Sweetheart and the Tough Guy

This is a neat trick I finally pulled off with the new (to me) 50mm lens - heart shaped bokeh. I'll post something on my photography blog tomorrow (Wednesday) on my set up, but you can go to this post from DIY if you don't want to wait.

First, my sweetheart, Erica. The hearts in the background make her look even sweeter.

And a dichotomy of sorts - Is this "tough love"?

I had a fun time with these and hope to create some additional shapes over the next few weeks, while the Christmas lights are still up.
