The Intimate Landscape

The Intimate Landscape.

After a morning of doing stuff I ventured into the garden with camera and lensbaby, still fitted with a +4 Diopter from yesterday. I was inspired by a video on Kelby One by Karen Hutton on Macro Photography where she talked about being up close and personal. So I was looking for some intimate landscapes and interesting shapes, colours and textures. 

This image was not strictly in the garden but photographed on my way to the garden :)

These two Pictures were from yesterday

Following on from my daily photo journal .......

Before I went to the dentist in Cambridge today I remade the pinhole adaptor  for my Lensbaby. Nothing elaborate, just double sided tape and kitchen foil stuck on one of the removable apertures that came with the Lensbaby Composer. I have not worked out the aperture yet, but its small.

Off I went with my camera and modified lensbaby to Cambridge. 

The first five images are with the PinHole modification. The other seven images are using a fixed aperture of f/8 on the Lensbaby Composer with Glass Optic

Decided to play with the Lensbaby on a tabletop exercise with some garlic.

These photos was taken with the Olympus OMD em10mkii with my Lensbaby with sweet 50 optic fitted. 

I am really enjoying the creativity of this lens, moving the sweet spot around the frame is an interesting experience and I have not fully mastered this yet. 

As we left the orchard it indeed did start to rain and just as we arrived back home we had some thunder
