The other day I went with my daughter for a walk in downtown Appleton. We went just to take pictures and to see what we could see. No real plans, no real purpose, just fun taking photos. If it was anything it was an exercise in creativity. I decided to bring just 1 lens. Not just any lens, a lensbaby. It is hard to describe a lensbaby to non photo people. It was made to do a style of photography. In a nutshell it is photography with cameras that have really bad lenses or toy cameras with really bad lenses. With digital photography this is hard to do. Nobody makes really bad lenses for slr cameras. So what is a digital photographer to do?? Lensbaby. It has been slowly refined over the years but I have an earlier model. Focus is adjusted by pushing in or pulling out the lens, and you can bend it as well. It is just a fun lens to play with.
Here are a few photos from the day

It is that time of year again. The summer before Senior year of High School. Hannah goes to Little Chute High School and is the last child and 3rd daughter of my best friend from High School. I photographed his other 2 daughters and if you search my blog you will find them here. Just like her 2 sisters we had a great time, also like her sisters it was extremely hot outside. It must be a family thing. Hannah held up great, I on the other hand, lets just say needed a shower when I was done.
