D.I.Y. Fisheye Experiment...

The results are in! I mounted a home-made fisheye lens made from a door glass and some PVC pipe on the Holga and shot a few rolls of film. This combination left much to be desired as far as focus/depth of field are concerned. Above are some of the more successful images:

    1. Cincinnati Museum Center (Interior)

    2. Waldvogel Viaduct

    3. Honda Civic (Interior)

    4. Beechmont Bridge Connector

    5. Little Miami River (from Otto Armleder Park)

    6. Fire Escape, Pendery Alley

D.I.Y. Fisheye (Fountain Square)...

I finally got around to building a fisheye lens using a door-glass and some PVC pipe. I took it downtown for a test-shoot about three weeks ago - while there are still some adjustments to be made, the above image was the most successful of the bunch.
