A question that comes up on workshops is can you use a lensbaby with flash. The short answer is “Yes”. I really like the lensbaby, love that mysterious feel you get from the selective focus. I use the latest version, the Composer. This version has multiple lenses you can use to give different effects, as well as a wide angle and macro adapter. I like the double glass optic the most. The same principles apply using flash with the lensbaby as with a normal lens. For this image of Christina, I used the double glass optic with the F4 aperture ring. I placed a single SB900 on a stand to her left, adding a Honl 8 inch snoot, and shot away. Tech Data: D3, lensbaby composer with f4 aperture ring, 1/80 sec, ISO 100, SB900 with Honl snoot attached.
