Well the whole story could be told again, but here's the story I started a while ago:

Here are a few image I took with my homemade fisheye lens. Made it out of a lenscap and a eye spy (a thing in the door to see people on the other side of the door).

1. Same image as above but with a highpass
2. Added a Topaz adjust "crisp"
3. Added a Topaz adjust "crisp" and the highpass
4. Added a Topaz Detail "Creative Detail Accent"
5. Added a Topaz Detail "Creative Detail Accent" and the highpass

Witch one do you prefer? Or just the original... no treatment?

That's perty cool Hermie. View of the cat from a fishbowl.
The image with highpass appears the have the better detail.
Give us a shot of your lens contraptionthingy. Hope it's not mounted with ducttape.

For me personally I like the dreamy kinda feel it gives... A bit more practice with the lens and it will be perfect.
