Let me be the first to say that you have some excellent landscape photographs over on your site.
The Fish-eye is a great lens when used well.

I haven't done any specific tests with it as, well I prefer to just use em! I feel the the fisheye can produce a complementary effect to my Landscapes, it could be something to do with the way it distorts the centre of the image? In that it draws the background a bit nearer than a standard wide angle would rendering it bigger in the frame? I Don't even know if thats a proppery of the lens or not as I'm a complete Fisheye novice and the optical characteristics of these things are a bit beyond me really but I know I like it...
