The wind was spinning a petunia basket in the evening sun and shadows

I like these a lot, Sandy! We just don't know what we're going to get until we try. The first three pictures remind me of some impressionistic paintings I've seen. The fourth picture is stunning (my favorite), and the fifth is also beautiful with the effect of the silhouettes. They are all beautiful, pleasing to look at! 
eta: I love it when we "push the envelope" like you did with the spinning hanging basket!!!

Gorgeous shots, Sandy! I love the effect you've captured with the wind lending a hand. Usually I think the wind is the enemy, but you've used it to your advantage. I love the last shot, not knowing which end is up. Awesome silhouettes and shadows. The first three shots look like beautiful water color paintings. All very nicely done!

So very creative, Sandy.... I love the colors and effects you created and that's what's so wonderful about using a lensbaby, you never know what you've captured till it's on your pc!! ....and the addiction continues!!!

The neat thing was that the basket was past it's prime. Needed a pruning for 2nd. bloom. I hope to remember this in other situations. Take that second look especially through the camera. Might find other special surprises. So glad you enjoyed all.

Oh how it continues! I feel that I am neglecting my other cameras and I do miss other types of shooting. Where does our time go?! Happy you enjoyed these.

Sorry about the eyes. I am going to have to shoot a few sharper just for you. At least you had the orange one to enjoy. Hope to see you later.

it's just my eyes...the shots look blurrier than usual because of my dry eye problem
and my eyes are constantly watery...drives me crazy! I love the orange one with part blur and part sharper!

You certainly used less than ideal weather conditions to your advantage, Sandy, and created beautiful art. Love all of these...and especially the spinning baskets!
