"Wherein The Giant Squid Tricks a Fisherman."

Here is my first completed painting.
The story is, The Giant Squid has gotten wise to the way of the world and lures ususpecting prey by shaking a dummy resembling a human in distress.
Oh, if he only knew...
Here it is on the wall above our dinner table.

The Fisherman.

The decoy and The Giant Squid.

Homemade 35mm Adapter!

So this is a project I've been working on in my spare time for a while now, and now with the purchase of a new HD camera, the project has picked up some speed. The Idea was to make an adapter for the video camera so it is capable of using 35mm Film Lenses. After all the research and searching for parts, I have some results that I am quite happy with.
Here are some images from the first tests of the AF-S35.

*Note: the grit and dirt you see in the images is not on the lens, its on the piece of plastic (soon to be replaced with glass) that the lens projects the image onto. If I get a proper focusing screen or piece of ground glass, the dirt and scratches will not be seen.

Shot on the Panasonic HVX-200 with a 50mm Konica.







More tests and video coming soon!
