Through the The Mist
My very first Lensbaby shot!
I finally had some time today to test out my new Lensbaby Composer with the Creative Aperture kit's star ring. I set out towards the beach, but the fog was so thick I couldn't even see 5ft in front of me. Not a dream weather situation for photography.
I walked around for a while, but felt so uninspired that I didn't take a single shot. I couldn't see anything i wanted to shoot so I started to walk back. I was literally a block away from my place when I shook my negative attitude off for a few minutes and took a couple of snaps of a man crossing the street parallel to me. I thought the picts looked kind of interesting, so I hung around and shot a few more shots on different settings and using the bendy blurriness (technical term) of the Lensbaby.
This was my 5th shot. I pulled it into Photoshop and did some cross-processing and voila!
The point in all this blab is that you should never give up shooting, even when you are uninspired, uncreative, and negative about your photography. You never know what great shot may find lurking around the next corner, or in this case, through the mist.
So get out there and keep shooting :D
