Another b&w

Playin with a lensbaby2 on my walk back out of the woods.

Interesting shot, Leann.

I haven't tried any lensbabies yet...did it do what you wanted?

Although I am not a fan of the lensbaby and what it does, I really do like this. But I think it would work just as well without the lensbaby effect.

What I like here is the layered branches and the many diagonals it creates; the lone oak leaf that sort-of anchors the scene, but it could be a bit more pronounced; and the feel of autumn barely hanging on by a thread. The pewter November sky spells cold, November, the advent of winter.

A bit of a crop from the top strengthens this a bit, but I like how it feels... Nicely seen.

Thanks guys,
Lance -yes it did what I wanted but it is kind of tricky to manipulate it.
Richard,
Thank you for your candor-I am bound and determined to make this lens work in landscapes.

I agree with the E-I-C. I have not found many shots using lensbabies I've liked bu this one works. I look forward to you figuring out how to get a good shot on landscapes with it!

I like this one Leann - the effect from the lensbaby is interesting and unusual. looks like it would be alot of fun to experiment with. I think the placement of the leaf is right on and it definitely pulls the scene together.

I really like this Leann. I enjoy seeing different views of the landscape, and this is definitely different!
