on the Lensbaby learning curve

This is such an amazing lens. When I grow up I want one =]
Love the picture

I think the lens baby is best used for events like weddings and artistic photos. I am not saying that sports photography is not an art. If you could get closer to the player I think it would help.

Try to get out to a parade and get close and take detail shots, the lensbaby really shines when you do closeup detail work, like flowers at a wedding.

Thanks for the comments, jlabel and mindforge. I've done a crop that brings the viewer a bit closer to #23, and the result is slightly more focused (and slightly less dizzying). I'll work on some close-up stuff.

I really like both of them, but especially this first one for how it almost hurts my eyes (in a good way). I want to look around at everything, but I need to stop and rest my eyes on #23 every few seconds before I venture again into the jungle of blur above him. Great work.
