I’m kind of excited about the idea of going back through the files and looking for ways to push the boundaries of creativity. Not that I won’t be going out to shoot, just not every day especially now that the flowers are kind of bedraggled from the heat and the smoke still has me hiding indoors with the ancestors. Anyway, I shot this one back in July at north Mountain Park with the sweet 50. That lens has a ball joint on it that allows you to point it in the direction where you want the focus to be and then blur out every thing else. So in this case I pointed at the bee and got maximum blur on the right. I then took it into Topaz impression and applied a Cezanne look and came back and masked it out over the flower with the bee and it’s neighbors. This one printed large on canvas would look great on my living room wall.
