More Choices





Help me pick the better photograph, again, please.  I went over to the side garden, where Kathy's Zinnias are exploding.  A beautiful thing to see.  So I spent some time looking for an interesting composition.  Then after shooting some pictures with my regular Nikon lens, I went inside and got my "lensbaby."  It is essentially a magnifying glass mounted on a device that holds it in front of the camera and allows me to focus.  I have used it before, and the danger is that it may just seem like a cheap trick.  Which photograph do you like the best?

Top photo for sure. Bottom photo might have worked if the flowers were in sharp focus with leaves blurred.

Top photo. I'm not crazy about the blurred view. BTW - Kathy's zinnias in my garden are doing really well, too! bsk

Thank you all! I should have known that a cheap trick wouldn't fly with all of you!

Top photo. I'm not comfortable with the blurred photo. Kathy's zinnias are beautiful! Her zinnias are doing well here also.
