It's no secret that invention is often accidental. Before our children were born, Happy-Hubby and I were experimenting with a cheap camera. Don't ask me why, but we placed a variety of glass cups and bowls against the camera lens and took photos of ourselves and each other. The texture, shape and colour of the glass warped the image of the person beyond, stretching, fracturing, duplicating them... wow; what fun it was to see the different images we could make from different glassware.
Time is always limited, but sometimes, it's fun to try new things with everyday objects... you might just create something altogether unexpected like we did. I'm going to try it again with my kids... when time permits!
