Ok..so you took some similar pics for him and he liked them. So have you continued to do this. This could be something he really appreciates and continuing to do this for him might reap the benefits you are looking for.
What about doing that, printing them off and hiding them in spots where he'll find them when least expected? I did something similar to see if my H would like it (when I was trying to figure out if he liked ANYTHING like that at all). I took a few pics of myself, picked the best of them and printed them. I hid one where he'd stumble across it at work, when I wouldn't be around (I wasn't worried that he'd share the photo with other men, that's not his style at all). He really liked this! It also had the affect of putting ME in his mind the rest of the day
I've made myself a note on my computer to do this every so often (so I don't forget)....so he continues to get these little surprises, but not "regularly" just when he leasts expects it.
