For the week that’s in it Part 3: Loved-up Desktop Wallpapers

 I don’t really mind Valentine’s Day. There, I said it. Ben and I have a pretty low-key tradition: We get an M&S Dine in for Two, pick a movie, and settle in for the night (although it falling on a Saturday this year might tempt us to try this guide). What’s not to like?

That’s not to say I don’t subject him to a cheesy card I bought from Etsy, or silly gift. But now that I’m older, I really feel that V-day is my excuse to be cheesy and romantic, if I choose to do so, and hate the idea that anyone would feel pressured into insincere acts of romance for the sake of a holiday (sorry, ex-boyfriends). 

So, with that in mind, I thought I would create these desktop wallpapers; they’re something that can be shared easily, that’s a little romantic without being fussy. In case you’re wondering, the backgrounds are different Dubrovnik sunsets. I was very happy and loved up taking each shot, my best friend and fellow camera nerd at my side, so I thought they would be a nice fit.
