A few from the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens with my A7ii and a Lensbaby "Sol 45".
I'm not sure I love the Sol 45 - it's a little over the top, but for flower photos, it's kind of nice. Interesting bokeh. I have purchased Lensbaby lenses quite a few times, including the original (@2004) which was basically a plastic element glued to a vacuum cleaner hose! (Still have it)
They are always fun, but the thrill wears off quickly. It's a once-every-3-months lens.
Yes, I feel the same way about mine. Burnside is much more subtle, so I rarely get tired of that one.
Some more from Sony A7II and CV 40/1.2 E. I struggle with the colors now when the greens are crazily saturated and the light so strong, so I made them B&W.
I don't like summer and can't wait for autumn...

I love your Burnside photos and that's the lens I should probably get, but this Sol 45 came up at an irresistibly low price, so I took a chance! (The Burnside is pretty expensive in comparison.)
