Fern Frond

[Mike Moats]

Shot this with the Lensbaby. I like the soft curves of the fronds and the DOF that the lensbaby produces. Anyone interested in buying a lensbaby contact me and I can save you 10% when you order from lensbaby. Fuji S5 Pro, Lensbaby, Tripod.

A lovely fern, Mike. Never been a fan of the lensbaby effect, but I like your image.

[Mike Moats]

Hey Jeffrey, I was never interested in the Lensbaby myself until I saw some of Fabs Lensbaby images. I've been having a blast since I got one. It opens up new posibilities in abstracts. Thanks.

Great lines. Great pattern. Great color saturation. I might have been inclined to have taken a little bit off the bottom and just leaving the start of the curve - but that's just me.

Very striking composition Mike. Love the effect you got with the lensbaby !!!! Definitely lovely work !!!

[Gus Cobos]

Excellent Mike,
I like the feel of this, very pleasing soft greens...:D

[Robert O'Toole]

Mike,

I really like the comp, the super nice light and the flowing lines. I wish it was sharper.

Got to love the Baby, Mike, glad you are having fun!!

Just got my D200 converted to IR, pairing that with the Baby is going to be a blast!

A great pattern design Mike composed nicely on the diagonal.
It would work better for me if the front dominant row of fern shoots where in sharp focus.

Hey Mike,
You know I have trouble with soft focus ones..........I'm going with John and Robert on this one.........just a hair more sharpness and I would be OK. I may want a bit off the bottom..but I think the sharpness may affect that statement also.

excellent opical balance with smoothlines and rich color.

I love other people's abstract images, Mike (mine always look like cr@p :() and this one is no exception. The softness, the curves, the color all just feel right to me. In some ways, it is a very relaxing image. Very nice job.

I may have to consider you LensBaby offer, Mike.
