Pringles Macro Lens
Well, more precisely, a Pringles can macro lens.
I’ve always loved fine art of almost any stripe. I remember impressing the heck out of a nice girl once by correctly identifying not only the Gustave Klimt print she had in her cube, but the Ansel Adams as well. I have to admit, though, the quirky photography has always been what caught my attention, not the classics. You know, things like microsopic beasties and close up shots of common objects. That kind of close-up photography is called “macro photography” and requires, you guessed it, a macro lens. Well, I’m a ways off from doing anything as fancy as that, but if you aren’t then I’ve got just the link for you. Today, I bring you a neat blog called Photocritic.org which has DIY instructions for making a macro lens from a Pringles can. Yep, a Pringles can. Cool art photgraphy and recycling all in one post. Can you get better than that?
