I thought it was high time the lensbaby went out to play with me. I haven't used it for months. If you're not sure what a lensbaby is then check here. This image was taken using the plastic optic and wide aperture. Initially I was just photographing the railings till the person came into view. It turned out I knew the person who walked into shot and so we had a nice conversation.
This looks like a very fast cyclist. In fact they're stopped at the lights. I kind of liked the blurring.
Here we have Glasgow Cross with the customary (for Glasgow) shoe hanging from the telegraph wire!
Here's looking at you! That lens covers a multitude ;-)
I took my bike to the bike hospital today and will collect it tomorrow - with new cables and, with any luck, functional gears. It was a lovely afternoon for sitting outside even though it was overcast. Tonight is not as hot and stuffy either so that is nice.
Thanks Jon and Sandy for your encouragement to post more photos and thanks to Jan for understanding when I don't. Hope your week has started well.
Very nice. I particularly like the top one... and the bottom one, of course :-)
ReplyDeleteIt looks as though you had fun. Great street shots and self-portrait. I'm looking forward to more walks like this!
ReplyDeleteThe sp is a lovely one, and the shoe on the wire made me laugh!
ReplyDeleteThe lensbaby does make for interesting effects!
ReplyDeleteps You are very welcome! Good to have you back, it can get lonely out here......
Ok imp, I need some advise. I'm still not sure about the lensbaby thing and if it's for me, but it's about time I at least had a try. Even though you've helpfully sent a link, I'm still at a loss where to start.
