156/365 | First coreopsis (taken with a lensbaby)

View attachment 764767

Which Lensbaby did you use? The Sweet 50? I just got the twist and love it! Though it is meant for full frames, I use it on my Canon 80D and I still get some of the twist- not all.

This is a repost of a shot I took last year but I’m using it as a shameless plug for a book that it appears in for charity.

The Leica User Forum runs a competition every few years where forum members make a donation and submit pictures to be judged by a panel for inclusion in a book that is sold for the charity Worldwide Cancer Research - https://www.worldwidecancerresearch.org

I was lucky enough to be chosen for inclusion this year with the pic below and was also in the top twenty, which means a large print version will be displayed in the Manchester Leica store gallery space in due course.

If you are interested in purchasing a copy of the book for this fantastic charity then there a couple of versions available here http://www.blurb.co.uk/b/8758572-leica-user-forum-book-2018 (and a 12x12 Version to be added imminently). I appreciate they aren’t cheap but if you like the piccies, have some spare cash and want to support the charity then have at it. £10 from every book purchased goes to the charity and the forum has raised over £25k since starting this in 2010.

I used the Edge 80 (also for today’s photo). I have a sweet 35 as well but I find swapping the optic nerve wracking so I haven’t used the 35 since I got the 80. I should try again.

Congrats. I loved this image when you posted it before. I'm sure it will get snapped up.

Congratulations on the much deserved acknowledgement of this really great photo MacRy. I would imagine it looks great in a publication and even better framed and on a wall.

That's terrible! Lots of your work should be printed. I'm sure Mrs MacRy would like a few around the house.

Thanks AFB that’s nice of you to say. The closest we’ve got is an annual Vistaprint calendar that I do every year and gets hung in the kitchen.

Well I suggest you change that! Quality photos should be printed and hung.
I have a few of mine around. But I'm about to get a canvas done as Mrs AFB likes one of my driftwood shots.
