There are plenty of different speciality lenses available which help you create all sorts of weird and wonderful effects in-camera but Lensbaby has to be my favourite. A few years ago I brought myself a Lensbaby Composer and from time to time I still take it out for a bit of fun. 
What the Lensbaby composer does it create a sweet spot of focus in the centre of your image and blurs the rest of the frame. It’s lots of fun and very addictive!
If you have a chance to get your hands on one give it a go!
There’s more information about the composer and other lenses at the Lensbaby website.

Here’s a few shots I did a while ago in Bushy Park and Kingston.

This weekly photo challenge is designed to complement our photography basics section the London Mums website. Each week we will set a different theme and your homework is to go out and photograph a collection of images related to that theme.

You can start this challenge whenever you like and do the different themes in any order you see fit. Think of these challenges as a photography workout. Don’t just do them once and not revisit them. If you do start these challenges as you begin our online basics classes then in a few months why not revisit older challenges to see how much better a photographer you have become.

Also try and think outside the box as much as possible. Photography is as much about creative interpretation as it is about technical prowess.
