Priory interior with the Pentax A 16mm f2.8
Brian.
LBA is good for you, a Lens a day helps you work, rest and play.
To be honest I'm not keen on 1 and 2 and 3 would be much better without those pesky people. 5 looks a bit strange to me as in not the correct angle BUT ..... love number 4
I recently purchased a 15mm Sigma f/2.8 fisheye for the K-1 and am struggling to get out and use it at the moment, your recent efforts will hopefully spur me on to use it.

B&W works with 5 - but the angle does my head in!
Some people call me 'strange'.
I prefer 'unconventional'.
But I'm willing to compromise and accept 'eccentric'.
Was actually considering the 16mm so it's very timely (I have used the 17mm but found a bit of limitations with light in the viewfinder, even if it's still a mighty little lens with incredible punch for its size). The result you are able to produce speaks loudly!

...although it may seem the ideal subject for a lens like this it's really not as easy as I imagined! Selecting the right angle and getting the composition right is difficult - there are so many potential distractions towards the edges. The variation between highlights and shadows is so great that the sensor and PP together only just cope, CA is quite problematic (particularly around the window lights) - but fortunately LightRoom adjustments deal with them quite well.
This is going to be an interesting journey
