Next week I start an online Lensbaby class through Clickin Moms with Caroline Jensen! I’m beyond excited to learn from this Lensbaby guru (and also from some of the amazing photographers taking the class- Holy Cow!). I’m taking it “study-along”, meaning I won’t get any feedback except from my classmates, but I will have access to all the class materials and can read the feedback Caroline gives the other students. We’ve already been given “pre-assignments” well in advance of the class starting, so I already have started learning.
Because I’ll be so involved with the class, it is possible that I’ll be pretty behind in my still life assignments, unless I combine the two (which I may in fact). But since I often use a lensbaby for my stills, I’m going to try to step outside of my comfort zone and practice outside and with people.
So here is a lensbaby still life of PEONIES (surprise, surprise!) and my chair.

Beautiful Melinda, also love the chair in the backdrop. We are getting some good mileage out of our peonies. Mine finally dropped petals this morning. So fun to see the colors change, now they are a pale yellow in some light. 🙂
Melinda, It’s sweet and simple and a nice balance to busier compositions. I can say this since I have calmed down after having seen the prettiest peony ever! Sorry, I was swept away there. It’s my favorite flower color: warm pink. And I can’t help but think: where does she get the lovely props!? Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm with the rest of us…really: THANK you. 🙂
Nice an have fun………………
