Washington D.C. with the 10.5mm fisheye

[nakedyak]

Hello friends, I havent had a lot of time to get out and take photos since I moved to the DC area. Had a friend come for a visit a few weeks ago, and decided to do some touristy things. For fun, I decided to use only my Nikon D70s and 10.5mm f2.8 fisheye lens while we walked around DC. I think using only one lens can be helpful in making you be more creative with your photos. Anyways, it was a challenge at times, but these are just some snapshots that i took. Let me know what you think!

And happy new year everybody

this is a crop obviously

this one is handheld at 1/10th! you can do that with the fisheye

Nice!

Great use of the fisheye

I had to look at them a few times, but I think my fav of the series is #5. There's just a lot to take in...but it's not too busy.

Excellent work. It is a hard lens to control and it is easy to make poor photographs with it. Yours are excellent.

Great series.
I love the one of the Natural History Museum (with the elephant) and the last one, with the WWII and Washington memorials.

I like the shot of the Metro train. Now if only you could capture the non-working escalators with that thing

Memories are made of these.... Very nice. Especially like the Black and White shot, the Natural History Museum and Air and Space Museum. Reminds me of when I was in D.C.

Great series, the lens really brings the shots out!

I like much all the photos. You have known to remove high productivity to him to that lens, and in addition you have used it very well. Good work.
