These images were taken with a homemade lens.

If you like the look of it but do not want to  make your own, try a lensbaby!

The images from a tilt shift lens draw your eye into different parts of the composition and have a very different feel than a standard lens, such as the image below.

Happy weekend and happy shooting to you all!
