Your first outing with a fisheye? I'd never have guessed. You've chosen some good subjects and produced some good pictures. The words in the sculpture in the first one seem very appropriate for a fisheye - 'Twisting, turning...'

I like these. The FE offers a unique perspective.

Thank for your appreciation! Also... that's the Dambustees memorial at Derwent Dam.

Peter.... it certainly does!! I love lenses that are subjective, and the FE is probably the most subjective lens i have ever owned.

Sorry, there's a pattern?

Great images, particularly the one with the Porsche, (what a great colour too.)

Yeah, maybe, but rightly so, Ian. That is some work you've done there. Excellent. What was the lens by the way? I've been looking for a SMC Pentax A 16mm f/2.8 for a while now. (Came across one from LennyB some time ago - that went in a nanosecond. It was a great price and quality knowing John.) So it goes... (sigh).

Particularly good set (IMO) - I always used to find I could get only one of two half decent shots from a lot of effort - I think you've definitely got "The Eye"
