Played with my lensbaby Omni seahorse wand.
Here is a link which might explain these ever so fun lensbaby filters. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUka0Dw4XZM )
The mono version of this for the NF-SOOC challenge just really didn't have any spark so, I made a jpeg from the raw file. I think that it still qualifies.
Again I have no idea what you wrote there - camera setting jaro - way above my head. What I love about this photo are the light bubbles - orbs - to me they are very special - from what I can understand, you created them with your lens. Think I am going to have to invest in it, as I love orbs
Changing from RAW to jpeg is just changing file type, not editing, it is still sooc imho and qualifies. It has been a while since I played with my lensbaby. Thanks for the reminder.
@pusspup@ninaganci@blueberry1222@cdcook48 Thank you so very much. Lensbaby lenses are a hoot to play with. They are manual focus but the freedom and creativity that they allow is limitless.
@ninaganci You might start with chapter 1 of this series. There is a huge amount of youtube tutorials about lensbaby lenses. They are a manual focus lens and not everyone's cup of tea but they let one step outside the normal and go a bit crazy. What I used was just a filter system (omni filters) and not a lens so less expensive than a lens. You can also find these lenses used too.
Thank you all so very much. I had forgotten how fun these are to play with.
