EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image captured by Sertac Kayar, we witness a moment of creativity and tradition as a woman delicately decorates an apple with carnation seeds. Taken in the southeastern city of Diyarbakir, Turkey on February 14th, 2018 - Valentine's Day - this photograph encapsulates the essence of love and celebration. The close-up shot focuses on the woman's hand, her fingers adorned with vibrant nail polish, gently placing each seed onto the apple's surface. The depth of field creates a dreamy effect, blurring out the background and drawing our attention solely to this act of artistry. This unique practice holds great significance during Valentine's Day in Turkish culture. The apple serves as a symbol of love and fertility while carnation seeds represent affection and deep emotions. By combining these elements together, it becomes an exquisite traditional gift that conveys heartfelt sentiments. As we observe this unrecognizable woman engage in such meticulous workmanship, we can't help but appreciate her dedication to creating something beautiful for someone special. It is through small gestures like these that people celebrate love and romance around the world. The aroma of fresh apples fills the air as she completes her masterpiece; a testament to both her skillful hands and creative use of natural materials. This photograph not only captures a visually stunning moment but also reminds us how even simple acts can convey profound emotions.
