Well it was actually morning but starry starry night sounds better for the title
Playing around with the lensbaby
Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it
Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

I count at least seven stars! Anyway, nice and very dreamlike. Enjoy the lensbaby.

Interesting result. The effect gives this a sleepy feeling. Lovely tones.

Very unusual shot. Looks like the water has frozen and there is a thunder coming up.

I love what you've done with this, it feels very moody and brooding. The water looks like a rough blanket!

Yeah great effect and a nice fun touch adding the stars (am I the only one who saw the others?). I had a play around with one of these at the Focus Show a couple of weeks back and they take some getting used to! Good stuff, look forward to seeing some more taken with this.

This is a superb shot, JJ. The star hardly seems real .. too perfectly form in a way. Good composition.

Love that shot... but must say one thing about that star... ummm... the points on it are a little to sharp and it is funny how one star is shining perfectly on such a cloudy evening... :)
