BHF, flipped lens, Portra 160NC, expired

[davidbrat]

Yes those results are really great you have a nice tool there! I also would like to see what you get with portrait work

[davidbrat]

Well, it will be something... different, but still magnificent i'm sure!
1/40 is not so long, you should give it a try without duct tape.

David and Peter, thanks, gents, will try to get some people in the frame,
next time. Maybe I can find some interesting motorcycles, too...hummm.

Peter, agree, the last is not such a successful attempt as the car pix. I took
some flower shots that were way OOF, need to find the exact focusing distance
when shooting with the flipped lens and No 13 filter attached.

Much too late I discovered this thread!
This is a spectacular effect and perfect photographs.

I am sure you will have a lot more fun with this cam/lens ...

Cheers
Tobias

Tobias, thanks, it is a very simple camera, but gives some fun
results! They don't go for much on ebay, just a little over postage.

I like the effect as well but the film makes it work...have you thought of using some flowers instead of duct taping people...... you know, you could get into trouble doing that...

Moira, I did try flowers, but they were OOF, will try again.

I hope to nail down the right distance for focusing both with flipped lens
and No. 13 filter attached. Here's one from a flickr member that got much
closer to good focus:

Cool effect, nicely done.

Tobias and Gary, thanks!

After perusing the BHF flickr gallery, I will definitely try to do some people pix.
One from another flickr member, flipped lens:

[mmelvis]

Very challenging shots with good results.

This last bench image is DYNAMITE! I do love the effects in all of them, and the fact
that it didn't take Photoshop to create the effects. VERY nice and interesting work.
