Light Falls Like Rain

A Lensbaby experiment, tilting the focus to see what happens next... like so much of life. ;)

It was a beautiful day, here in the midwest of the US. I was s glad to get outside at the end of the day. Sssh... don't tell anyone how great the weather is here, at this time of year. :)

Thanks for any visits you have time to spare. Thanks, too, for putting up with my little photo "experiments."

Love the brilliant green falling leaves!

[Sandy]

It looks so pretty.

Lensbabies are fun, but so hard to use! I like the shimmery greens.

[Rosie Kerr]

@taffy It is interesting... you just have to let go of the requirement to have things in focus. A difficult adjustment for me. :)

[Taffy]

@rosiekerr Me too...and it didn't help that Michael (the one who led the trip to Japan in 2014) looked at one I tried that I thought was decent and said, 'too bad you don't have that single tack sharp element.' Given my vision and that I have to do the lens manually, a single tack sharp element is not likely to appear in one of my images so I haven't picked that lens up in ages.

[Rosie Kerr]

You know... that comment makes me go "argh." As if you can't take a good photo with less than a very sharp focal point.

[Taffy]

@rosiekerr Good point!! I think you just helped me let that go!! :-)

Nice experiment!

[Janet B.]

I love your creative, beautifully lit photo and, also, the conversation about not always needing a single, tack sharp point of focus.

[Margaret Brown]

Lovely blur, nice colour and light

[Shailesh]

amazingly beautiful

[Clare Gadsby]

Well that seems like the most divine use of a Lensbaby Rosie. Tilting the focus has worked beautifully :) And maybe thanks to your encouragement we'll now see @taffy out with hers again, which would be something to look forward to ;)

[Call me Joe]

Very blurry good shot:)!

[Kim Harper]

Wow, such an interesting shot. I almost feel like I'm falling when I look at this - great emotion here. Yes, isn't our weather fabulous!!!

[Kathy]

Nicely titled.
