Your post-processing makes this one difficult to look at. Everything ended up too soft, thus making it all look out of focus. I think I'd rather see all the color in the frame, though your use of selective color is nicely done. It looks natural outside the obvious lack of color in the background. I do feel that you met the spirit of the challenge, but this one just doesn't fit my taste in images. I'd like to see a bit sharper focus.

Excellent perspective shot. Should have scored a little higher.

I feel like all the pictures I've voted on so far have nothing to do with love... like this

Love isn't just hearts, pink, roses, and kissing and you've proved that point.

Interesting use of desaut, but there is too much blur on the subject for me.

where's the love? the shot is supposed to show love... not just something you love. how can i tell that you love this if it was a picture by itself?...
