1 real heart.

Tutorials and Resources
- Forced perspective with bokeh: [link]

Materials and Methods
Custom vignetting to create heart shaped bokeh. Technique is explained here: [link] . This is mine: [link] Haha it's pretty poorly made. The yellow paper gave the entire photo a yellow hue. Christmas lights hung on a door in the background. ;) I've tried this dozens of times with my old F3.5 and it never worked. Now that I have F1.8, this is the result. Probably a hundred or so shots to get the focus right with a self timer.
The photo's a bit grainy due to the low lighting and heart vignetting despite noise reduction in post. Minor levels in post processing.

Additional Comments
Fun project :D try it yourself ;)
