C&C on First Fisheye Pictures

[Bitter Jeweler]

Ok thanks everyone for the input. Like I said, it was my FIRST shots with a fisheye. So I am still learning how to frame everything.

So, are you gonna go back and try the shot with the tips given and post it here?

I guess I need to do some research on the fish eye lens to find out how (and why) one is used. Maybe I'll add it to my wishlist!

Are they costly?

As other said... for fisheye pictures... meh. For test shots, fine, whatever.. they're test shots.

Jess, fisheyes are used when you want uber distortion, they are quite fun, but after the gimmick wears off for some, you'll have to justify the cost.

Some people use them quite creatively, so I am not knocking them.

I really really want the sigma 4.5mm, but for $1000, I can't justify it's purchase. For my shooting style, I know I won't use it quite enough to justify the cost.

the first one I like alot. Only thing I would do is crop the bottom off of it and that would give it a look of a bridge in the sky. kinda cool idea i think.

Blow these guys.

Not really my idea of C&C, but if you think it will help the OP...

Thanks Bitter...that photo is so cool, but yeah, too costly for me too at the moment. :er:
