New Bryce Challenge - Valentine's Day

Hi all, I'd like to see a Valentine's Day image. It must have a heart in it somewhere...abstract, literal, decorative. It's up to you. Valentine's Day is celebrated by many countries but some do not. That doesn't matter. As long as you have a heart, then you have a chance to win.
1st place winner $20
2nd place winner $15
3rd place winner $10
and as many honorable mentions as I want for $5 each.
Edit: I did forget to say that these should be NEW images.
Three images max - ends on March 10th, no extensions - use of a little bit of postwork is ok but must be mostly Bryce.
If you have any questions or I forgot to mention anything, please let me know. Good luck!

Thanks NGartplay for another challenge. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. However I still feel sad that Daz is dragging their feet and not willing to sponsor the challenges, it was Pam's (Chohole) idea not Apoc's. The least they can do is sponsor the challenges irrespective of who is running them, in Pam's Memory.
Once again I thank you for you endeavor to keep Bryce alive and your generosity to sponsor the prizes.
Thanks Very Kindly + NGartplay
And Then + this is a drawing on paper Thanx
NGartplay - thank you very much for your engagement and generosity. I find it sad that Daz 3D has lost all interests in their community.
ed3D - what a cool idea for such a cute entry.

Title : Hearts on Fire
Ah, ed3D, your heart is burning for Valentine's day! Very nice take.
Thanx Kindly
Wonderful surreal version ed3D! Great job on creativity. Loving the fire.
ed3D - indeed a very nice idea and well presented.
ed3D - I agree with the others very nice idea and nicely done.
I used the Deco Club Hdri as a backdrop for my 1st entry … Candy Hearts
The candy and chocolate box were a recent Daz freebie. The Hdri a freebie on Horo’s site. The table and smiley are also freebies
Very cool idea and render mermaid.

mermaid, such an excellent submission. The candy hearts are perfect and the smiley face is making me laugh.
ed3D, I think that I may have that fire from Clay. I remember trying to use it but it never looked good like yours does. Well done.
ed3D - Gorgeous scene ! I was going to do a similar scene but to Elvis Presley's "Burning Love" song - changed it to something different.
Mermaid - Excellent scene !
Even Robots need love !
Balloon - Freebie from Blender Market, Robot - Number 10 from DAZ3D, SF Building 1 - from www.grafik-3d-portal.de

Thanx so much //
Mermaid, Lovely scene and very good use of the HDRI.
Bunyip02, Very original. I wonder who is the recipient of the robot's love. Another robot? Or all of us?
My first entry is more typical for a Valentine scene, I guess. I call it 'Sweet love'. Hope you also see the third heart in the scene (I count the two parts of the box as separate ones). A Genesis girl with clothing and accessories and a Genesis 2 boy with clothing. The box of sweets is the same as in the render by Mermaid010, I think.
The terrain is an iceberg terrain, but with a Mediterrenean hills texture. The pergola with vines is from the Garden escape set. Because of the large memory used by textures, specifically of the hairs of both boy and girl, I had to retexture several textures to allow saving in Bryce. I used an IBL from the sky to ensure more light on the figures.
Total scene with quite some retexturing (also the boys clothes and the pergola) still almost 338 MB.
