Assignment #74: Selective Focus
This week’s assignment was inspired by my good friend and nature photographer, Budd Riker. He has been experimenting with Lensbaby creative-effects lenses, which can generate some remarkable and interesting selective-focus images. You don’t need to use an accessory lens to explore selective focus. Shooting with the aperture wide open, using tilt-shift lenses, and even postprocessing techniques can generate the effect. For this week’s Assignment, send in your selective-focus shots. Entry deadline extended to midnight, August 16. —Christopher Robinson, Editor
