Hi all, been a while since my last post. Been flat out doing work so I thought I'd take a break and share this with yoy. Taken with 55mm Riconar stuck in plumbing pipe and held in front of 350D.

Cool eyes! Great idea using a lens in a pipe!! :)

Maybe a little too much sharpening though.

Really cool shot. His eyes are beautiful. Someone please explain to me the plumbing pipe thing... exactly what has been done/how does this work?
