Paimpont 2018: Day 13 - Lensbaby Baby

Mrs S is less than keen on Lensbaby pics so I guess I'm going to be in trouble for this one... I don't care because I really like it.

On black? You betcha!

[Joan Robillard]

I am rather with Mrs. S. But I do try to appreciate them.

[Cat Whiskers - Nan]

I think this is a terrific shot of Mrs. S! Well done!

[James Martin]

There is a slight sense of mystery to this shot which I like...is she reading a book? Has she fallen asleep? Is is she disbarring of her husband for pointing the camera at her again :0

[Richard Sayer]

@fujiguy Thanks James; she's actually doing some comment8ng on 365 (she's @s4sayer)... and she never minds me taking and/or posting her photograph!

[☠northy]

oh yes! i think you've really used the lensbaby to it's full advantage here... which one do you have?

[Dione Giorgio]

So do I. Well done.

[Richard Sayer]

@northy @sangwann Thank you both.. it's an old one - the Composer Pro 50mm with magnetic slot-in discs to change the aperture... I just leave it at f/4!

[Loopy-Lou]

Lovely lensbaby portrait.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I think it works well for this portrait because you've used it as a frame around your lovely wife.

[Clare Gadsby]

oh yes. in my view fab use of the lensbaby, and you've got that crisp focus spot on on the gleaming hinge. delightful b&w also

[Call me Joe]

Like and fav too👍

[Kathy]

This is one of the nicer lensbaby shots I've seen.

[Hydee]

Hopefully she likes the result, it’s a beautiful capture.

[gloria jones]

Wonderful shot, focus, lighting...Looks superb on black :).

[Barbara Webb]

Beautiful b&w portrait.

[Jane Pittenger]

Nice choice of point of focus and a lady I’d love to know I bet

[Walks @ 7]

I feel that the beauty of a lensbaby portrait/image is that you look at something in a different way than usual. This one of Mrs. S really hi-lights here most intelligent eyes in a rather subtle way.

[Margo Sayer]

@joysabin
Joy...you’ve got to stop smoking the carpet ;-)

[Chris]

Looks great when viewed on black ;-))

[Andrew]

I agree with Chris, lovely on black

[kali]

her ear glows

[Issi Bannerman]

I like it too. Sorry Mrs S!

[Tom]

A wonderful portrait using the Lensbaby

[Walks @ 7]

@s4sayer lol!!

[Sue Rose]

Wonderful portrait. Great lighting.

[Jocasta]

Super portrait of Mrs. S - and perfect focus with the Lensbaby. It has the look of a v.expensive f1.2 lens

[Annie D]

I like it too

[Richard Sayer]

@jocasta I do have a 'very expensive' f/1.2 lens... I must try a comparison shot ;-)

[Claes]

There is so much character in this portrait, how could mrs S not appreciate that :-)
