Does it need straightening very slightly?

Yes.

Cheers, Kris.

Works very well in B&W too!

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

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!

Odd as it shows up fine here.

You can look directly in flickr: clicky link wotsit.

Best wishes, Kris.

This image has been "explored" on Flickr.

Pentax LX, SMC Pentax 28mm f/3.5 lens (I think...), Kodak Ektar, tripod, cable release, no filters, commercial dev and scan, slight crop.

There are two pictures in this shot, to my eye. Either there is the sky and the groyne with a bit of beach, or there is the sea and the pebbles (including the original one). To see what I mean crop the image into two square images, one of the top half, one of the bottom half (they will overlap a bit of course).

The bottom square image with the original pebble is quite a nice abstract shot, IMHO.

Best wishes, Kris.

Thanks Andrew. It was a good trip but giving five papers in three continents in a month was a bit exhausting. At least I'm back home now for a short while before my next trip to Ogallala, Nebraska!

Cheers, Kris.

Interested to know how you took the image from film to digital.

I paid the developer to scan the roll at low res. If I need a hi res version I have a Minolta Scan Dual II.

Are you heading to the far north at all?

I'm afraid not and am, in fact, back in the UK now. I spent a week in Perth and five days in Sydney before heading off to the next conference.

Best wishes, Kris.
