Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Great shot Kris.

I'm starting to get to grips with my DA 10-17 fisheye, but this is incredible.

The old 'K' series fisheye doesn't look all that fishy on a APS-C sized sensor but comes into its own when using 35mm film for which it was designed, of course.

Thanks for the nice comment!

Really good use of fish-eye. Works very well in B&W too!

A great image!

I don't think colour film would have had the dynamic range to cope with it. The K20D certainly didn't!
