Through the Lensbaby Blog Circle, April: The Fiddler

Living in Wisconsin can mean long stretches of time in the winter and early spring months without sun, and flat, dull light.

I placed Charlotte in a corner, between two windows, using the light from both. I flagged the light coming from one to reduce it, then added in some extra light with an Icelight to highlight her hair and the opening on the back of her dress. Here are a couple of my favorites, both made with the Velvet 56.
