      <image:title>BLOG - Lensbaby Spark 2.0 versus the Composer Pro: Are Both Worth Buying?</image:title>
      <image:caption>In both pictures I tried to focus on the leaves of the tree on the left side. While the Composer Pro allowed exact focus it was a little more difficult with the Spark. The effect of the Spark is beautiful but - as expected - a little less exact.</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - Lensbaby Spark 2.0 versus the Composer Pro: Are Both Worth Buying?</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this set of pictures I was able to achieve focus as planned. While both pictures are pretty, I personally prefer the effect on the right hand picture that I took with the Spark. The light is a tad more dramatic and the blur is more intense..</image:caption>

    <image:image>

      <image:title>BLOG - Lensbaby Spark 2.0 versus the Composer Pro: Are Both Worth Buying?</image:title>
      <image:caption>To my surprise in this example the Spark (right hand picture) created better focus than the Composer.</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - Lensbaby Spark 2.0 versus the Composer Pro: Are Both Worth Buying?</image:title>
      <image:caption>The picture on the left is a good example for how the Composer Pro performs a little better when you want to set the focus to an outer edge of the frame. In both cases I’ve tried to get the palm trees in focus. You can see the aforementioned “watercolor effect” of the Spark in the right picture; it blends things together more and creates a softer, more unexpected look.</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - Lensbaby Spark 2.0 versus the Composer Pro: Are Both Worth Buying?</image:title>
      <image:caption>The picture on the left has more focus in subjects. The people and the clouds are detailed, while the picture on the right (taken with the Spark) is a little softer if you look at the clouds in the sky. They both had a good focus, however, which impressed me!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>On the final morning of the workshop, we set out to photograph the sunrise. I didn’t bring a long lens, so I turned my attention to the backlit flowers glowing in the soft golden light—captured here with my Lensbaby Edge 35. Artists like Monet and Picasso have always inspired me for how they broke the rules and led with feeling. In this moment, I let go of expectations and allowed myself to simply sit with the light, with nature, and with the quiet joy of photography. What emerged wasn’t just a picture—it was a reflection of peace, presence, and happiness.</image:caption>
