A photographer’s journey

The famous “heart shadow-ring in book” shot November 15, 2008

So I’ve recently seen the famous heart shadow, cast by a ring (usually a man’s wedding ring) in a book (usually a bible) and I wanted to find a tutorial or tips on how to do it. Nada. Nothing. The only thing I read was that you have to photograph the ring in a book and then use photoshop to do the heart?!? That didn’t sound like any fun…SO…I just decided to try it myself! This is just my first try so I’ll update later! Please let me know if you have any tips/ideas/sites to check out! Thanks!
