Thanks Boris.

The north wall and the ends are covered with an old blue swimming pool

Hi!


There has been some discussion of the Zenitar 16mm fisheye so I thought I
would put up a few shots take with the ZX-5n.

It is much easier to use this lens on the DS with the 1.5 crop.  It is
really wide and bendy on full frame!

http://members.shaw.ca/hargravep/Image9.htm


Powell, the third image made me smile a little...  Not only Zenitar 
warped your greenhouse but it also painted its left wall (is it a wall) 
in this turquoise kind of color.


Strangely enough the second image does not look very fish-eye-ish... It 
is evidently very wide, but not obviously warped.


And the first one, to my eyes is the best one... The unfolded leave on 
the foreground makes it for me.


If you ask me why I commented in the opposite order, I would have no 
answer...

Pretty neat! Yes, I imagine on 24x36 it is a bit wider and more curvy  
than I'd find very useful most of the time. I like the rendering on  
16x24, haven't bothered to do any rectilinear correction with it yet.

Fisheyes are so much fun!!!  I love this one - "bending reality" in a
very aesthetically pleasing way.  The problem I find with mine is
using it in a way that's not cliched.  You've obviously figured out
new and fresh approaches with yours, as this photo evidences.

Well done.

Re: PESO: Fisheye Fun--Mother and daughter

2005-09-18 Thread P. J. Alling

I like the clean whites and total blacks...

Rick Womer wrote:


I had so much fun with Amita's 15mm Sigma during the
Philly PDML gathering that I went and bought a Pentax
F 17-28 fisheye zoom from Bruce Dayton a couple of
weeks later.  Slowly, I'm getting some of my summer
shots sorted and scanned.

This picture is of a good friend and her daughter,
playing on a picnic blanket at Tanglewood (the summer
home of the Boston Symphony in western Massachusetts).
I used my PZ-1p and the 17-28, handheld with Elite
Chrome 100.  Daylight was fading, but I did not record
the exposure settings.  I scanned the image and
cropped a few distracting elements (such as my feet!)
from the edges of the frame.  I like the perspective
the fisheye provides.

Comments appreciated.
