With Valentine’s Day just around the corner you may love it or hate it but there is no escaping it. It’s all over the high streets and media. Although the whole celebration is made up by the card companies to make money it’s a great time to show that special person in your life how much you love them!

Love is difficult to define yet easy to recognise. The more of it you give away, the more of it you have. The less you demand of love, the more it will bring to you. The fewer conditions you place on love, the more perfectly it will suit you, and the more meaningful it will become.

I’m in the mood for love. Here are 30 photographs of luuuurrve. Happy Valentine’s Day to you all.
