Valentines Day



Ok, now we all know today is Saint Valentine's Day 14 February. Of the saint nothing is known but that he was buried on the Via Flaminia in Rome on the 14 February.

In the West we celebrate this day as Valentine's Day and it is a day for lovers to express their devotion with a gift of perhaps a card, flowers or some chocolates.

What I am really saying is, if you love someone, let them know.

This is my first attempt at art rather than straight photography. No photoshop.

  2. Great initiative by the National Blood Service!

    Very artistic heart, which I'm trying to puzzle out.

  3. A few years back I used to donate blood every 6 months, sometimes every 3. But when I moved to this country and wanted to donate blood, they didn't let me. Go figure.

    Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving comments. Happy Heart's Day!
