Fisheye?

The good news – I got photos on the toy camera! Yes! I got 19 well lit images out of a possible 24. This is a victory! A victory, I tell you! See what happens when you read the directions, follow the directions AND use all the pieces as directed? Film photos! Huzzah.

Since there is no bad news, I’ll call this part the mediocre news. The fisheye is really understated in all the photos, sadly. I was hoping for crazy distortion – fishbowl style. But nope. It’s just a bit rounded on the edges. I’ll work on that.

Here are a couple more photos below, and a set of 6 on flickr

I do like this photo – Cathy Mechanic gave me two big pots of these pretty yellow flowers for our balcony.

I’ll be having a word with my location scout for future photoshoots. I can’t take too many more photos of the 3 or so blocks outside my office. I may have to venture out to Yaletown or Gastown for a change of scenery – shake it up a little.

And if you’d like to see the scantily clad women with the beef charts on their bodies, please click the links – but there are bare lady bottoms showing, so just look over your shoulder before you click on them. The links, that is.

RUMP.

RUMP indeed! Well, they sure got a lot of attention. I don’t know that it will support people going vegetarian or not. I have been reading about the dear deceased Queen Mum. She visited one of the South Sea islands(near, but not Fiji) before her father-in-law’s death and commented that there used to be healty happy cannibals and now they are sickly people in bad European dress. Those little pumkins may be encouraging something they would abhour.

The fish eye looks like it is just a little more than is necessary to combat the perspective distortion of a normal lens. I had brilliant ideas that you needed to do close ups to get wild distortion, but that does not seem to be the case. Very interesting shots. Congradulations on following the directions!
