Through Two Lenses

So there is more to life and my photography than red shirt clad Thais. I was playing around with a lens the other day that I hadn't used much lately. Canon's 50 mm 1.8 lens is inexpensive, and doesn't have the best autofocus system (its noisy and a bit slow sometimes), but its probably one of the cheapest wide aperture lenses that you can get. At about $100, its really a no brainer.

So I decided to get a little creative. I took my Canon 100 mm 2.8 Macro lens and put a AA battery behind it. I then took a photo of the macro lens with the battery also in focus. I converted it to black and white in Lightroom. Not a masterpiece, but a fun experiment.
