Digital Cameras and zoom lenses go hand in hand. When shopping for your latest camera, probability is one of the first features the salesman mentioned was the influence of the zoom lens. An influential telephoto lens is wonderful, and vital if you are shooting plenty of sports photography, wildlife photography, or any photography that requires you to imprison your theme from coldness. Here’s an actually amusing and simple way to get some strange shots by using a crystal ball and focusing on the image inside of it. A crystal ball inverts the scenery so everything inside looks upside down and captures a truly large viewpoint. It’s kind of a deprived man’s fisheye lens, but more supple in what you can do with it.

 

 

You can obtain a crystal ball or sphere by robbing a sorcerer, borrowing it from that wild tarot card lady around the corner. It cost me less than $50 including shipping. A batch of the shots looks huge if you rotate the image 180 degrees.

Play with the placement of the ball closer and farther away from the camera lens and be certain to focal point on the picture within the ball.

When you’re walking around with a crystal ball in your hand, people will think you’re a sorcerer. Particularly if you’re tiring a cape or amused maniacally. Have a Look!
