After the Ecstasy by Jim Robertson

The contest chose 13 out of nearly 2000 images entered to be featured in a soon to be published book about the light-bending lens. Although not getting published, Jim’s many-legged image is featured here on page 5 of the Honorable Mention gallery. Congrats!

@Crystal Lamont
Thanks Crystal! I don’t really like spiders but the Lensbaby kinda makes `em cute and fuzzy, even when one is devouring another like here. Well… maybe not.
@Struan
Ha ha! Thanks.

Diane, I love it! Whenever I feel stuck or uninspired, I put on the Lensbaby and it changes everything. Great way to get unstuck!

(That was Jim’s name coming into focus – lensbaby style)
Oh no Jim, a picture of a bug?! I don’t know…there is some sort of allure in this shot…but…it’s a bug!! And there are too many legs. To me this should be called Way Way Way After the Ecstasy…or simply No Ecstasy Here. Anyways, congrats on your honorable mention, Mr R.
Congrats. Jim on the Honourable Mention.
This is a walking, talking advert for lensbaby…. I’ve been wondering about this gadget for a while… now I’m convinced!
Super work Jim.
Thanks folks!
Hocus pocus, killer focus. Even an arachnophobic would love this baby.
Way 2 go Jim!!!
So delicate; fantastic detail….Congratulations Jim ~ !!!
