Hello everyone! As many of you have heard it is Lensbaby's 6th birthday. If you have not done so already, go sign up for our birthday giveaway http://lensbaby.com/birthday Blurb, Panasonic, and Red River Paper have just added to the long list of presents we want to share with you. We owe much of our success to you, the forum members. I'm very thankful for your loyal support and inspiration and want to make sure you have a chance to win a present. So, if you were a forum member before we announced our birthday giveaway (Feb. 26th) just respond to this post and I'll make sure your name gets into the "new forum member" drawing as well. We got a bit taken by surprise at the booth and only got a few Lensbaby images of the festivities on our birthday but I am attaching one image of me and the candled cupcake that kicked off the celebration at PMA in Anaheim. Thank you for your support and have a super beautiful rest of your week. -Craig http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?1,126325,126325#msg-126325 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:32:25 -0700 Phorum 5.2.8 http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?1,126325,128438#msg-128438 http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?1,126325,128438#msg-128438 jonesyjerrid General Discussion Tue, 06 Apr 2010 20:38:22 -0700 http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?1,126325,127521#msg-127521 http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?1,126325,127521#msg-127521

Not sure we have time to set that up. Wish we'd thought of that a few weeks ago.

Sorry I missed you last week at PMA. I had a small window to walk the show floor and you were out doing the same. Brought over a new addict and chatted with Howard a bit. Hope the show was good for you guys. Take care.

I can count on one hand the number of active forum members I have met at a trade show. Would love to have had the time to chat. Anyone coming to Vegas for WPPI next week?

Somehow being six just snuck up on us. Seems like just yesterday I was figuring out that an aperture could rest in front of a lens and the whole universe would not explode. This shift happened less than two weeks before the Original Lensbaby launched, allowing us to provide a very crude version of the interchangeable aps that our current optics have rather than a fixed f5.6 ap.

Attached is my first experiment with the Original Lensbaby (prototype) using aps in front of the optic. Can't believe I have not posted this before.

Paradigm shifts can be very simple. Glad to have been able to share a few with all of you.
