Day 55--A New State of Mind



On a day when St. Louis was hit by an earthquake, albeit a small one, it seemed fitting to usher in a new era of photographic adventures with a fish-eyed lens. I've been a little disoriented all day, so using a lens like this seems only natural.

It's amazing how close I can get to whatever it is I'm shooting and still keep it in focus. And the closer I get, the more the distortion.

This isn't the most extreme example, but it's a nice idea of what the lens can do. I'll probably be posting more over the weekend, so you'll have that to look forward to.
