Much love and many thanks to the good people of Lensbaby, who are joining us as the newest sponsor of Digital Photography Life. As those of you who have been listening to the show know, we love our Lensbabies, and we raved about them on Episode Six: Focus on the Lensbaby.
While we always appreciate our sponsors, we adore them even more when they offer a fantastic deal for our listeners. And the one from Lensbaby is sweeeeeet!
Buy a Lensbaby Composer directly from them, or from any other retailer, and you can get a free 0.6x wide angle/macro conversion lens. Visit the special offer page for the details. This wide angle/macro conversion lens normally retails for $1,000,000, er, $59.95, so this really is is a great deal. Michael and I don't have these, but we're dying for them (are you listening, good people at Lensbaby?).
The wide angle/macro conversion lens is really neat - it's a 0.6 wide angle with a rear element that unscrews - and voila, turns a into macro filter that let's you get 3"-5" away from what you're shooting. So, whether you want to get really wide or up close and personal, you just screw this little guy onto the front of your Lensbaby and your creative possibilities exponentially expand!
In case you didn't memorize Episode Six, or are unclear on what a Lensbaby does, here's the scoop:
With the Composer, Lensbaby introduces a completely new lens, based on a ball and socket configuration that delivers smooth selective focus photography with unparalleled ease. Photographers simply tilt the lens to a desired angle and then focus with a manual focusing ring. The Composer stays in the desired bent position without requiring a locking mechanism and features the new Lensbaby Optic Swap System.
Here's a portrait of me that Michael did with his Lensbaby that I really love.
OK, that is not me. Just checking to see if you're paying attention. Still, look at that beautiful blur. That's not a digital darkroom trick, ladies and gentlemen, that's achieved in camera, in seconds, with a Lensbaby composer.
Here's on of my Lensbaby shots. I love the way the flowers explode with the Lensbaby.
You can see more of our Lensbaby shots under "Galleries" on our SmugMug site.
Thanks again to Lensbaby for their wonderful support. You can check out the official Composer page here, and be sure to take a look at our special offer for you.
Thanks to Lensbaby for supporting DPLife! They obviously have good taste. :-)

There are two types of education. One should teach us how to make a living, And the other how to live. Do you think so?

It is mightily convenient, if you deprive your citizens of political liberties, to portray these as a bourgeois luxury.
