have you tried the lensbaby...

[k.elizabeth]

sometimes when the inspiration runs low, i take my lensbaby out with me and i find it always reignites my senses. i did a tag search and realised not many people use it or maybe it's not tagged... regardless i thought it would be something to share especially if you are looking to find a new lens to try out - It's relatively cheap and a really fun lens to explore... here are a couple of my shots, please share yours too.

I bought a used one, haven't worked it out quite yet. This is one of my few attempts thus far

Yes, used with Canon 5D a few years ago. Got bored with them only after a couple of weeks tho, the "fun" didn't last long, especially with the not-so-great IQ.

@viranod that's too bad, it isn't for everyone i suppose, i still use it alot and look to acquire more of its optics... the fun hasn't ended for me :)

@mikew yep it does take a little getting used to but it looks like you have it already

@beadedgalaxy By the way, your photos look great now that I see them on the new iPad!
