More experiments with doming resin. It’s not quite like cutting a lens, but if you get it right, the warp and magnification effect is great. This was a bill fragment that washed up on the beach. I don’t normally cut up my money.

This green rod is less than 2mm thick. It has lots of internal reflection so the ends glow in the brighter colors. Couldn’t find brown acrylic for the soil. I’ll set my time machine to 1974 and get some old bills from my grandmother. Our new money won’t pass for cash in ’74. Guess I could take a pile of quarters from before ’74. Boy, they’d look beat up for only having been in circulation for a few years. I’ll have to make sure my clothes don’t look too futuristic, too. Oh wait, they’re expecting spandex jumpers and ray guns in the future. I’ll just wear cotton.
