Tom Wujec, Fellow at one of the world’s leader in 2D and 3D design software, Autodesk, designed a Marshmallow challenge where a team of four people are given 20 sticks of spaghetti, one yard of tape, one yard of string, one marshmallow. The goal is to build the largest standing structure with the marshmallow on top within 18 minutes.
Don’t lie– you’d kill for great macro images on your iPhone. But fret not, as there exists a fairly simple hack.
Because the point of focus is beyond the image, we will need a positive lens to pull the point of focus towards us. Typically, any double- or plano- convex lens will do. These are very easy to find as they exist in throwaway cameras. In it, you will find a series of simple tiny lenses which you can put in front of your phone’s camera for optimal focus.
Here’s the best part though… I keep a few lenses in the coin section of my wallet so that I can have instant access to good macro images wherever I go. That makes me “cool” right? No? Well, wait until you see my before and after images:
So there you have it. I’m cool.
