Lensbaby of the Week #4 + Bonus LB Video

UPDATE: Oct 29, 2009 – I decided the heartbeat version was just too darn hokey so I have done a re-edit on the video.

Today’s LBOTW is a hokey mix of a peaceful brook, fallen leaves and ambient piano. If it inspires great if it pushes the edge of corny and makes you run away, that’s fine too. It is only a quick slap together test to see the possibilities of the LB Muse in video.

The music and sound effects come from flashkit.com. The ambient piano songĀ  is by edgen titled “last goodbye”. Let me know what you think of using a lensbaby in video.

    Lovin the idea, that LB is ~ N I C E ~….and when I watched it, I thought the first 3/4 of the film when you were going in and out of your focus, ought to be
    S l o w e r … and then at the 3/4 mark you started following the stream..good idea…even wider following a leaf…or letting it get away…nice stuff though…5DMKII? and what editor?

    I love the contrast between the peaceful leaves and the wild rush of the water. I’m still learning about shutter speeeds for capturing moving water.
