Yes, and this conversion happens implicitly, by virtue of the converter 
that has been created via class_<>.

So, the straight-forward way to do this is:

Logger *logger = ...;
bpl::object l = bpl::ptr(logger);

(the ptr() wrapper tells bpl that you want in fact pass by pointer. 
Without it, bpl makes a copy.)
