At Home: “Beyond Beautiful”

First Impressions of the Lensbaby Soft Focus Optic

When I first saw the announcement of the Lensbaby Soft Focus Optic I fell in love head over heels immediately. The images that accompanied the announcement earlier this year sold me straight away.

I'm still very much in love...
