    Default ∞ Ridges on a dime...

    got to messing around with my ebay fisheye/macro/wide-angle/whatever the fu¢k else you figure out to do with it haha.

    but yeah i took these... thought they were fairly impressive for just tilting a light down on my coffee table and shooting some money and diamonds haha.


    for reference:




    ZOOM ZOOM!











    just thought they were cool... i'm sure i'll mess with it more later. i want to do water and bugs and sh¡t. saw some ridiculous pictures from like $23534509834 dollar cameras and lenses on some website and want to see what an a100 and a ebay macro attachment will do haha.

    Thanks for looking.

    My pic of ridges on a quarter. With a reverse mounted Rebel kit lens.



    And a pic I took for an IA photography challenge if anyone remembers this.


    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    it's a reverse mounted lens, I'm not to worried about the quality of it being backwards, and it was supposed to have that glowy effect on purpose. Also, the cignette was photoshopped in to bring your eye towards the center.

    Purple fringe is related to poor glass quality, backwards or forwards, glass is glass. Im not talking about that "glowy" effect.

    I realize what it is. The purple fringe is is on the edge of nearly blown out highlights, this is why I referred to it as a glowy effect. They aren't really purple, just as dimes aren't really gold-ish, there is a hue change in the photo. True, this still leaves a color fluctuation, however the lens is engineered so that the light travels through it the other way, where it better fights fringing that's really minimal in the pictures. Either way, the only remedy is to spend money, which I don't have right now.

    Original:


    Alas, no purple fringe.

    haha... yeah this thing is just basically a magnifying glass on the end of my lens so it's tricky and akward. i wish it would have a wider field of focus cause i can only get like 1/4 of my field to be in focus. oh well... what do you expect when it's just a lense that screws off the end of my fisheye lens.
