I have been taking a number of these lately and would appreciate your thoughts.

I like the presentation and use of blur to the background, well done, William.

Very beautiful! This is so nicely done -I thought at first that there has been some kind of heavy post processing... Fantastic job with Lensbaby! #5051265

Thanks Alexandra. While I have no real objection to post processing. I try to get as much in camera as I can. This had curves adjustment and some high pass sharpening but the blur and DOF was from Lensbaby without any aperture ring and bent to throw the top further out of focus.

Hi Bill
I think this is wonderful... the blur the focus, DOF, composition, colors are fantastic. My only other thought is that if I myself were taking the photo, I may have removed the two green and one brown stick in the middle of the shot which to me are a bit distracting. Wonder if you could clone them out and present this again. I think it could make a wonderful image a truly outstanding one. #5478757

Thanks Dianna, I am not sure whether they could be successfully cloned out. The lensbaby produces such complex blurs they are almost impossible to replicate.
