Bluebells and Violets
I was playing with the original soft focus optic, the macro element and the widest soft focus disk again today, while wandering round Malvern Common with the dogs.

I’m having so much fun with the combination of the original soft focus optic and the macro element from my wide angle converter. The spring flowers are so beautiful, especially close up.
I’ve been playing with the original Soft Focus optic and the macro element from my wide angle converter for the last week or so. Today I added the soft focus disk with the widest aperture, which creates a smaller aperture and more detail.
After playing with the new Lensbaby Soft Focus II optic I was keen to play with the original optic and the macro element from the wide angle teleconverter. It wasn’t as warm and sunny this morning so the flowers weren’t as open as they were yesterday. I had to look much harder to find them.
The soft focus was wide open (so f/2). I was surprised how easy it was to focus when I added the macro element. I am pleased with the results.
It’s amazing the effect of a few warm sunny days. The bluebells are starting to come out and the violets were amazing.
The daisies hadn’t opened when we were on the Common. It meant I got some lovely shots capturing the pink on the underside of the petals.
Today I took my Lensbaby Obscura optic and the macro section from my wide angle converter for a play. It was a beautiful sunny morning on Malvern Common.
