Shot for Valentine's Day, last year.
This is our China we got for our wedding.
I thought it'd be perfect for this, along with our crystal.

Lighting was candle light,
and painting with light with an ordinary flashlight
(on the rose, the plates, and a little bit of the ivy).

(It was this shot that led me down the path
for Painting with Light, one of my favorite ways
to light for photos. Sadly, I seldom do it anymore.)
