After seeing some recent posts by Betsy Dallas on her blog, I got inspired to shoot some flowers in our garden using a soft focus technique. All images were shot with my D700 @ ISO 800 with a 24-70 f/2.8 lens. I added a extension tube and a Singh-Ray Soft-Ray filter to get the soft look…Betsy was using her Lensbaby and it worked great for her. May have to get the Lensbaby out too…

  1. Hey! That’s me! I’m glad you liked my images! Now YOU are inspiring ME to want to get back out into the garden with my Lensbaby. Your shots are dreamy! 🙂

  2. Hi Betsy! Glad you recognized yourself…dreamy was the inspiration from your images, so I must have gotten some of your feeling into my shots.
