The Making of 'Life Through a Lens':

It was a Wednesday morning and once more my camera club friends and I met up for good coffee, nice cake, good company, good conversation, the chance to solve all the world's problems and sometimes even to discuss photography.
Me, well I joined in all that but my trusty camera was all set up and ready for any candid characters to come my way.
Unfortunately it was one of those days when it seems there will never be a shot in the making so I cast my eagle eye over the two tables we were occupying and chanced to spot my mate Dennis concentrating on reading a brochure.
There are no friends nor foes when I'm out 'n about with a camera so I quickly made the necessary adjustments and bagged this coffee flavoured candid.

How many lenses were involved? Well there is the obvious lens of Dennis' glasses, the less obvious lens of his eye, the blinking eye of my camera's lens and of course the lens of my own eye.
Now you have added the lenses of your own eyes and perhaps glasses to the list.

Enjoy!

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Congratulations! Merna
