Happy New Year to you as well, and thanks for the feedback. The lensbaby is such a great tool, even when you think you know how to handle it, it gives you something a bit unexpected. Maybe you'll post a link to me with your experiments? best, Dalla Hello Pirjo, sorry I’ve been so busy the last months that I’ve become quite antisocial and am first catching up now.

I did notice that you use window and candle light, but just wondered if you used spot metering to get such subtle results. I am so glad that you are enjoying your Xmas photo sessions and I really think that you are onto something with your soft Lensbaby images. You seem to be able to combine "practical" photography and art photography so well. I am taking a bit of time off from photos at the moment, hoping that a little distance will give me a new direction. On one hand I need/want to improve my technical ability but on the other I only really enjoy pushing the boundaries and using the camera almost like paint brush. Your Lensbaby images are a very good example what I have in mind. I hope you have a very good Xmas and a Happy New Year and I will continue checking your Flickr images.

Or one main "natural" light source from a window, or a light series or a candle or something like that.

I was going to answer you much sooner, but I'm caught up in the middle of christmas photo sessions - wich is fun, but a lot of work. I use Lensbaby 3G, I like it very much. And I don't use spot metering. So glad you like the lensbaby images. The lensbaby is always getting more and more appealing to me, especially after I started to use it more "softly" not with such a strong distortion as before, but more as a motion blur. all the best to you, Dalla Hello Pirjo,

Since sending you that magazine cutting I have been following your progress. These autumn images are just to die for!! I have been playing with my lensbaby for a while, but cannot produce anything close to these. I also love your child pictures and the lighting is always so amazing. Just out of interest - do you use spot metering and what lensbaby do you use? Your lensbaby pictures are true art. Pirjo Hi again Dalla.
