And so to answer the inevitable questions:
  • Yes, it's real.
  • Yes, - it is 'Art'.
  • No, you can't buy one, - you have to make your own.
  • You just pedal it. Doy!
  • No, it would not be better with an engine.
  • Well, your mum stayed over and she didn't complain.

I have incorporated them without permission, but full credit goes to this amazing artist, my intention is to expose people to his talent. All these images were available online, I just did a Google image search for 'John Berkey'
His work is just incredible.
If you like his art, [and you can afford it] you can buy his book here:

Videos for Tripolar II & III are on the way.

So, I modified my crappy old nokia camera-phone with a small fisheye lens, because the plastic lens-cover broke.     




The lens was salvaged from an old LED torch, that had a spot type beam.
It was just an experiment, since the phone took shitty photos anyway.

Wow, was I suprised!
It won't focus on anything further than 10cm from the lens, however the depth of field effect is wicked. If I had another camera, I'd take a photo of the phone.
Anyway, I spent a day capturing the tiny parts of my neighbourhood.
The results are quite cool.

.: I had a camera ..

..on my s0ny mobile phone.
Its now dead, but for a few months I got some decent photos out of it.
These photos are all places I pass through in Sydney on my varied travels for work.
They are exactly as I snapped them, as is, applied no cropping or adjustments - mostly 'cos I'm lazy.
