Hole in the hand

Tidying up the kitchen...became a little distracted when replacing the roll of paper towels.

Loved doing this when I was a kid...still do...so I TRIED to recreate it in a photograph.

For those not familiar with the illusion:
- hold up your left hand with the palm facing you
- hold a cardboard tube with the other hand, put it up against the side of your left hand
- look through the tube with your right eye at something far away..the further away, the better the illusion.

Because I have two eyes and two hands and a camera has one eye and no hands, this took four pictures to recreate:
- a faraway shot
- a hand shot
- a shot through the tube
- a shot of the side of the tube
