About the technical:

To manage the timing , an electronic sound activated device was used to trigger the flash. It is an simple homemade circuit.

To control the light is more difficult, as splashs are unpredictables, I tried to put white reflectors everywhere possible. An black background was positioned one meter far.

As champagne was expensive, an cheaper substitute was used. Sorry for this non glamourous true.

Thanks all again.

Edited: About the tries, I did an set of 25 shots, went to the computer an analyze at the monitor. As none was good, I did another set of 25, which produced 3 good images. I think I selected the best one.

Originally posted by Gauti: nice shadow. title could be better. "Love in sight"? "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"? "Love & Math"?

That is a very pertinent comment.

After posted I notice that another title would work greater, such as "Math Love" , or as sugested "Love of Learning".

An more focused title could help in understanding my image proposal.

Very thanks .

How many times did You saw pics of flowers , evenings, seashores, ...

Please judge the image.

After knowing about the tutorial, I read it and notice that this conduct to an very long heart. My completely diferent way of doing this produces an more "round" heart, with thin borders.

NO DPC tutorials used.

Thanks all for the helpfull comments. Sorry not answering sooner, and individually , but I am travelling far away from my home. I am very happy with my first participation. I did this shot for the miniature challenge, indeed, but I loose the submission time. Fortunately the floor lines made the image suitable for this challenge.

Originally posted by Spanish_Grease: I love this. I love images that use childrens toys! I wonder if all these such images in the past challenges are from the same individual? Have you been working on a series perhaps? Very nice, a creative original approach that captivates the viewer, and really makes me ponder 'Whats goin on with this girl?' It's a very emotive photo, that makes a good use of vanishing point in an symbolic, abstract way. This photo has DEPTH, something a lot of challenge photos lack. 10

That was my first submission in this site. Thanks for your words.

I did an little mistake, not croping the area above. My son used the computer and changed the monitor calibration, and so it seem more dark than it really was. Thanks.
