@dorsethelen Thank you, I am on the learning curve with this but am having fun. @cmp Got lucky with the light, I tried earlier in the morning but didn't really work so waited a bit and snagged a couple right before going to work. @susale Thanks, this lens is a great deal of fun but I have so much to learn and try and try. @deborah63 You betcha, I tried other things but need to learn what subjects work and what do not. @jeffinvt Thank you, I finally have color in my yard- this bush/tree is blooming right now. I need to find out what it is. @pasttheirprime Thank you, I like this lens because it is manual and forces me to think again. @overalvandaan Thank you, so glad that you liked it. @paulmann Thank you, I need to also work with the side blurs but one step at a time.
@stephanies Clare Gadsby @pistache uses one a great deal and she is rather good with hers. I found out that it is manual so I had to disengage a function on my camera for it to recognize the lens. I did go to youtube for some help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_x8UkXBpmA is one I liked alot.
@joysabin Well thank you Joy for your kind comment! I had missed that you got a lensbaby - just found on your other pic that it's the same as mine. So glad you're enjoying it. I found it in equal parts frustrating and delightful to start with. Can still have trouble focussing but I guess that makes the pleasure all the greater when a shot does come out how I planned! I have now got 8mm & 16mm macro converters for it which are fab (although getting them on and off is a fiddle) and you can combine them for 24mm mmmmmmm. Not expensive either ;) I also like that I have to use manual focussing. Looking forward to seeing more of what you do!
