Hi All 👋 I was playing with lensy the other day with a sunflower thinking it may be an interesting subject for a lensball, with a few odd effects. One thing I learnt is that shooting objects that are dark, whilst outdoors is problematic with unwanted light reflection, particularly sky & clouds; they often hide the subject.

In this first shot, I was trying to get the sunflower to fill the lensball, but the dark interior of the sunflower turned it into an almost perfect mirrorThis is the extreme end of the scale with light reflection.

The next 2 shots, although not as extreme both have the same effect.

These next shots were me trying to get a macro shot of the sunflower petals, through the lensball; blame BushboyThey came out with quite a dreamlike affect which I think are quite good

I moved indoors where I had greater control of the light & was able to get more satisfactory results (although, that pesky guy with the camera had to get in the last shot).
