A blog by Paul Pavlinovich covering his learning journey as a photographer designed to pass information to others on similar journeys, perhaps to avoid his mistakes.

Let go of the sharp... welcome to the unsharp
Let go of the sharp... welcome to the unsharp
Something I've noticed since acquiring a Lensbaby Composer, when you let go of sharp you start to notice other things you only appreciated subliminally, form, colour, motion. A grand door is opened that changes the way you undertake your other photography because you start to notice the form, colour and motion in those shots too as you're composing them. A new dimension. If you've not travelled across the threshold with Alice I suggest you get hold of your own personal looking glass and go have a play. The unsharp isn't for everyone but I enjoy the outcomes and enjoy the struggle of manual focus coupled with manual lens alignment to get the sweet spot someplace interesting.
