Fisheye Beach

[fmw]

A fisheye lens can add an eerie character to a Lake Michigan beach at sunset.

I never been there, but it has a very different look with the waves.

The full frame fisheyes are 180 degrees measured across the diagonal of the frame. So you don't see a circlular image but you sure get a wide view. You can't point down very far without including your feet in the frame.

Thanks. The lens has a focusing ring but it isn't really very necessary. About everything is in decent focus at any f stop.

No, it was a 16mm fisheye nikkor on a Nikon F100 shot on Fuji Velvia 100. Same design for a larger format.

like it, really must get a fisheye instead of borrowing the one from work all the time
