Cosmo Splender

Exploring the lensbaby - Lensbaby is a specialty lens that allows the photographer to bend the light to create special effects such as this garden scene.  It has a somewhat Monet like feel to it and takes quite a bit of practise to master.  Artistic renderings such as this are best viewed from a distance as it can be quite disturbing trying to focus on detail in an out of focus photo.  The trick is to have sharp focus in one area (the sweet spot) to direct the viewer's eye.  This attached sample is my first serious attempt at working with this specialty lense.

Searching for the light

Class started back this past week and today we spent 6 hours learning how to work with natural light - this shot was taken later in the evening as the sun was setting - back lighting with a silver reflector to bounce the light back onto the subject.  Thank goodness for Trinity - what a trooper - I can always count on her to stand in as my subject on a moment's notice.  Trin - don't ever grow up - you are perfect just the way you are.  Love you.

Just toooooooo cute!
