 This was taken with LB Composer, but with the Plastic optic (for extra blur). Converted to B&W using Silver Efex (Holga preset)

I live on the very edge of a very big lake, which is currently totally frozen. Right now it is a playground for the winter sports fanatics. Lots of skiers, skaters etc.

The jetty shown here has a step ladder down to the water (for swimming). Currently this is used by the folk wanting to go walking or skiing on the lake. I guess the lake is not thawing any time soon!

I love the Holga preset in Silver Efex. I fear I will overuse it frequently. :-) Works especially well with the LB in this scene. Which is cold. Very cold. Spring is not yet there, I suspect...

I just love the LB effect here. Great sense of longing/nostalgia. I want to get a Composer one day.

The blur and holga preset give me the impression of looking at part of a russian submarine from the 1940's. I am usually not a fan of blurry pictures but the stuff you achieve with your LB make a lasting impression on me. So much so, that I'm thinking it might be my next purchase... Just beautiful!
