I used to say there was nothing to shoot when it was raining out. I just finished a class that made me realize that I had beautiful diffused light in my dining room whenever those skies clouded up for rain. When I realized that it was going to be one of those weeks, I headed to the grocery store and loaded up on flowers. This unusual colored mum worked well in that nice light. I used a soft gold reflector to get rid of some shadowing. It was Lensbaby time and I used my new soft focus optic along with the +4 and +10 macro filters. I have gotten brave and been moving the lens around a bit with\u00c2\u00a0that new optic\u00c2\u00a0so I had some selective focus somewhere besides in the middle. You start out by leaving it in the middle. It is a bit hard getting used to the soft focus optic, but I sure do love the &#8216;feel&#8217; it gives the photos. My instructor told me that it is hard to do corner selective focus with the macros and that I nailed it here!! Nice praise coming from a Lensbaby expert.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/junecontinued-581b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3427\" title=\"junecontinued-581b\" src=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/junecontinued-581b-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/junecontinued-581b-300x199.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/junecontinued-581b.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday, June 28 &#8211; I shot this one on a &#8220;pouring rain&#8221; day.
