Well, here's a dead certain way of getting a Deadly Boring image of mother-in-law or federal politician.
The Canon Ixus 1100 HS is a budget compact- about AU$400. If you want to keep the kids amused for hours and develop an interest in photography, you could do a lot worse.
My grandson used the fish-eye feature on the IXUS to create this cartoon like image of himself.
To buy a regular fish eye lens for your DSLR is gong to set you back many hundreds of dollars maybe even thousands.

Turn your CAT into a WOMBAT
Is this a miracle or what? I heard someone once turned water into wine and a mate of mine once turned into a one-way street but turning a cat into a wombat without performing radical surgery is pretty nifty. Actually, I didn't do it myself; my eleven-year old grandson performed this feat of magic using his new Ixus 1100 HS - Fisheye. He told me his next trick was to turn me into a generous Grandad. Ha!

Yak not Mac

This Aussie beer ad for Matilda Bay Brewery - Fat Yak Pale Ale cashes in on this very nicely.
So photographers, put your left field caps on. rather than just 'copying' a sign or ad, interact with it and record the interaction.
