When I’m shooting an abandoned building most of my pictures tend to have a “grungy” look. This is usually accomplished with the use of Photomatix and some selective editing in Photoshop. But a couple years ago on my first visit to Scranton Lace Factory I decided to take a different approach. I did some shooting with my Lensbaby and the soft focus optic.
I love the soft focus optic and use it frequently with flowers. The soft focus optic is different from the other Lensbaby lens options because there is no focus spot, rather the entire scene is soft, yet in focus. But for some reason it seemed like the right tool for the scene in front of me.
