two IS better than one

My apologies for the quality or i should say LACK of quality of this photo. I did not realize it had so much noise till i was uploading it :-/
So now to just talk about what is more important :D the clay pieces. These are 2 anamorphic cameras. I found this guy named Matt on flickr who explains what happens when an anamorphic camera takes a picture and a diagram of an anamorphic camera.
In my picture you are looking down onto the tops of the cameras. The little button shaped things in the center are the shutter caps. One has a spider on it the other is sorta a flower shape (it was made from using a fancy button the same way i made this one from a hair clip) Then as you notice on the sides of the camera are 4 handles. I was brain storming after i made the cylinder shape of ways to be able to lean the camera on its side. But since the camera is round i didn't want it to move at all or that creates a fuzzy image, expecially considering the exposure time for a piece of photographic paper is 45 seconds in bright sunlight. Yeah - that means i needed some way to keep this camera completly still. So i put 4 handles on each one - now i can tilt them in 4 directions. I was thinking i would only put on 2 handles but then just decided to go for the more symetrial view. Maybe the next one will have a asymetrial handles.
Yesterday, i finished up my taxes! I get a whole 13 bucks back from federal and 42 back from state :)) now i have to print them and send them off. Since i've not hooked up my printer yet :( for lack of having a bigger desk and still in the straightening up process i decided to make a pdf and just print them at a friends house)
Wondering what i should wear
(holding up 2 different shirts),
