Image 1 is very ambiguous and image 4 is also ambiguous, ambiguity is good, makes the mind think!

All nice work.

I think you can tell from all the comments so far how much people admire this work. I agree with them. I like the originality, the lateral thinking of how you can work with a camera and a lens to create such an effect. Excellent work.
Be well, stay safe, but most of all, invest in memories

thank you so much - sometimes you wonder if others can connect with the vision.....

Yes these are brilliant.

My efforts with a 'poor' lens look like normal images taken with a 'poor' lens. What you've done is capture the abstract and it sends the mind off to a different place.

For me, pic 2 looks like some duck billed birds in a cartoony way. Almost an uncanny valley effect.

Not just connected, I'm wallowing in it! Absolutely superb. And proof that ultimate sharpness isn't the only game in town .

I'm wondering whether part of what makes these work so well is because they are similar to how the eye actually sees the world before the brain synthesises the bigger picture - small sharp region in the centre surrounded by blur.
