Lensbaby

​

are lenses designed by photographers for photographers.  I was introduced to lensbaby equipment by a photographer called Kathleen Clemmons as I admired her flower photography, she was and is doing unusual/unique imnages of flowers that really caught my eye.

I am not just a flower photographer but at the moment I am housebound looking after 2 elderly parents, so the garden is where I escape for a few minutes when I need a break.  The garden is full of flowers so they are for now, my subjects.

Some photographers are not fans of the lensbaby sytems and mock them.  To be honest I was one of those people until a friend let me have a go of one of her lenses and I was instantly hooked.  Also had the idea to use old film lenses on my dslr with adapters and have been getting some lovely bokeh effects with those.

These are some of my flower images using lensbaby's.
