Thanks for writing and checking.<br />Dave<br /><br />Julian,<br />What a cool little trick. It really does work. Looking stupid or not, if it works and your spec's aren't handy... Isn't it amazing how looking 'stupid' isn't quite the big deal it was as a teenager? What happened?<br />Cheers,<br />DaveDave Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038109966699072504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-75201606476080168122009-07-17T07:33:43.852-06:002009-07-17T07:33:43.852-06:00You know, getting older and needing the "damn...You know, getting older and needing the "damn" glasses all the time is really becoming a real pain. I have one solution that drives my wife completely bonkers -- says it makes me look "so stupid". The trick (if you have enough light) is to take your thumb and first two fingers and create a very small hole that you can just barely see through when you bring you hand up close to your face (the "stupid" part). At that point you have a "pin-hole lens" and by varying the diameter of the hole created between the fingertips you can actually focus on something close up. It really, really works -- and if you are comfortable with you image and don't think looking stupid for a moment will kill you it will help in a pinch. ** You might want to pratice a time or two before showing off this new abiltiy!!! *grin*Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01234240006219431211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-88383601474956790772009-07-17T07:09:47.790-06:002009-07-17T07:09:47.790-06:00I believe my uncle was the radio operator on your ...I believe my uncle was the radio operator on your ship during apollo 13...
