After completing my long theater photography project today, I needed a bit of air. I set outside in the backyard, and I noticed that my cucumber plants started developing baby cucumbers! I grabbed my camera with the Lensbaby Velvet 56 and the +10 macro filter, and took these few images to share you with.
And I found a tiny garden helper on the dill as well:
Today my husband surprised me with a gorgeous bouquet of lilies. It was an anniversary present; we met 18 years ago today, on a very snowy day in Denver, when the power was out in many homes. But we had a wonderful first date at the local On the Border restaurant. My lucky day…
I used the Lensbaby Twist 60 for all images, but the second two were done with macro lenses.
When I was experimenting with the Twist 60, I tried it with my beautiful and fragrant Freesia flowers. The first image was taken at F2.8 from about the minimum distance this lens can handle. Post processing in Lightroom, On1 Effects and Topaz Studio.
For the second image I placed the +4 macro filter on the lens, and this is the image I created (same post-processing):
There is definitely a lot of potential in this lens for me. I’ll share more images in the coming days.
Which image do you like more?
