Last Sunday afternoon I was playing around with my camera trying to get some bokeh. I used mainly my 70mm macro lens at an f-stop of 1.8. I remembered that I purchased an extended kit of disks for my lensbaby that had shapes in them and thought they might make some interesting bokeh.
This is the lensbaby composer lens and the disks.
This is the various disks that came with the Accessory kit. The main part to this kit were two macro lenses and two wide angled lenses.
I am sure there is a name for this shape but it is not known to me.

If you are interested in trying out this technique with your camera visit the website of Darcy at www.myboybarbarians.com. There are various tutorials in the blogosphere about making a covering with a shape that fits over any lens that can create the same kind of thing as my lensbaby kit.
Have a great day. Valerie
