Monochrome Weekend: Self Portrait

Fish eye mirror on the ceiling at intersecting hallways in St. Joseph Regional Medical Center, Mishawaka, Indiana. I tried to do this with a film camera, but couldn't get the centering right, so I resorted to using a compact digital Nikon.

Monochrome Weekend: Machine

The old Kamm Brewery in Mishawaka is now a complex of stores and bars called The 100 Center, but some of the equipment from the brewery is displayed on the grounds. This machine was captured with a Kodak Hawkeye Brownie Flash camera with a flipped lens. Flipping the lens results in a "sweet spot" of focus in the center, with blurring toward the edges.
