Wintertime

Jeff, I got my Lensbaby a month ago and it is interesting as well as time-consuming for me to gather experience with its uncommon facilities. I also posted one of my first shots two weeks ago in "Weekly Challenge", a rather half-baked shot.

As you ask for comments, I got the impression that you wanted to put the smaller tree in the foreground in focus. Maybe focussing at the crown instead of the trunk would have been favorable. But that might be a misunderstanding. I learned that observers are sometimes baffled by Lensbaby-shots, and we should show our intentions as clear as possible. I am still a beginner in experimenting with this technique, yet anyway it is a joy to have a new tool!

Stunning winter Lensbaby shot, I love your choice of focus, The strong blacks contrast nicely with the snow and frost! So glad to see another bender in the group! Cheers

Interesting for sure. Could see cropping a bit off the bottom.

Has an interesting feel to it. I kinda want to see the tree centered...maybe b/w too. Feels a bit left heavy here.
