I’ve been using a tilt-shift lens, the Canon 45mm to be exact, for about a year but have been anxious to give a Lensbaby a try. About two months ago I got my first Lensbaby, the composer pro with sweet optic 35, and just a few weeks ago I purchased the Edge 80 which is very reminiscent of a tilt-shift. Admittedly, I haven’t played with them too much as my time has been devoted to other responsibilities but I recently joined an amazing group of 9 other women who have joined together to form a blog circle and to encourage one another with their Lensbabies. The other day, I broke out the Edge 80 and gave it a go around the yard to see how I like it. Um, yeah, I’m a total fan!





Despite his disgruntled expression, he was actually begging me to take his photograph. Whatever you wish, son!
Please follow the blog circle by visiting my friend Jessica Holden’s blog to see her lensbaby images!

Caroline - I love these, April. The flowers are beautiful, but your son’s face takes the cake. He is so handsome.
Maybe it was his “serious” pose. My kids always look mad at me when they are trying to be serious.
