It's an interesting shot, but lensbabies are kinda gimmicky for my taste. Not really true photography.

It has an underwater feel to it. The colors are reminiscent of the waterlillies series.
Bravo!

It is a somewhat interesting photo; however, there was no effort put into it. The lens made it interesting. Without it, it would be an extremely boring and cliché shot.
posted: 06/19/2008 by artist
I wouldn't go so far as to say 'extremely boring and cliché shot' but I agree that the lens is just cheesey.

Kinda made me a little dizzy. Very pretty but a little to much.

Dreamy impression of the cherry blossoms in Central Park...love it; take me there!
posted: 06/24/2008 by Susan Drilling
This just simply pops when you look at it! Did make me a little dizzy also, but an awesome picture!
posted: 06/25/2008 by MB Ferraro
Too gimmicky. And the effect is so pronounced that the human interest in this gets lost. Could have been good...
