LensBaby Look at Weather Over Tulips
Used the LensBaby for this landscape view of a mixed up sky over a field of Golden Apeldoorn tulips in the Skagit. I was curious about what something other than macro would look like with this lens.

Thanks for stopping in for a look. Feedback appreciated as always.

I think your LB image looks "great" Catherine. If anything I think I might prefer a wider aperature disk and a bit more blur in the very top clouds, but this looks good too! :toast:

Lovely comp Catherine, that cloud is perfect. I always love complimentary colors in a photo. I don't know how these lenses work, but if it were possible to have the distortion reach a little more toward the center I think it would add here. Slightly darkening the sky might deepen the blue and add a little more drama too.

The tunnel vision is kinna cool, i like the center grouping of clouds with the dark one cropped out, but thats me. :)
