Like 'em.
two places my fisheye gets used is at round tables at the reception...
and the dance floor....
I often use trailing curtain synch flash with slow shutter speeds....
also great for getting the flower toss...

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Shame the grooms whole arm isn't in frame on the second shot though.
I know, thought a picture of the bride was more important (that's her brother btw, not the groom!). Got the whole arm in this one, funny thing is, when showing them the photos the next day, he thought I took a ladder on the dance floor!Shame the grooms whole arm isn't in frame on the second shot though.

I took a look at your gallery and they are all impressive
How did you light the dance room floor shots then as I'm seeing no shadows from flash so wondering if you were able to bounce it off the ceiling :
The Metz 58s tilt & swivel, so tried my best to literally get the flash head pointing vertically. Not sure if the stofen helped though.I took a look at your gallery and they are all impressive

First one is brilliant It's the chap's dance move that makes the shot for me! It has better DOF than the 2nd one as well.

you've really captured the atmosphere, which lens are you using?

Excellent work, even after you've told me I still can't detect any traces of it. And even though I haven't seen the original I think this would have drastically improved the shot.

Must admit that I think it turned out very well, easy to do too, manual focus, point flashgun up and shoot. Does it work for you?
