Weekly Photo Challenge: Romance

This week, the theme is to:

Photograph romance

Romance is the photography theme this week – anyone in the mood for some love?

This may be a good week to put on your street photography shoes and see if any summer love is in the air. I don’t know about you, but I always feel much more romantic in the summer than I do in February.

It’s hard to find these romantic moments without feeling a bit voyeuristic, but sometimes the moments come to you.

The sea wall in Havana, Cuba – the Malecón – on a nice day is a place for the community to gather including lovers. It’s known as “Havana’s couch” or the “city’s sofa”. This couple stares off to sea.

This sweet scene is of two young lovers catching a kiss in the rain from Hampstead Heath overlooking London, England.

Even animals can have a bit of a romantic cuddle.

But even if you don’t come across lovers in your travels, think of all those things that are romantic: chocolates, champagne, roses, cool jazz – I’m not sure how I’d photograph cool jazz, but this is the week to figure it out.

Happy Valentines Day! A little early or a little late – depending on how you look at things.

The classic heart as a symbol of romance works as well – even if it is painted graffiti-style on the side of a dumpster.

Sweet graffiti painted on the side of a dumpster – love can be found everywhere.

Or seek out a romantic landscape full of soft fog and light or photograph your personal favorite romantic spot.

Love is in the air this week, capture it in a frame.
