This is another fisheye lens experiment. Alignment was partially accomplished with the use of Photoshop's warp tool. Because of the nature of this lens, depth detail definition is only evident in the very center. Strange, but interesting phenomenon. I have a LOT more to learn about this lens, so please be patient with me. About the picture:
No visit to Philadelphia would be complete without a stop at Elfreth's Alley, often referred to as the oldest continuously inhabited street in America. It was opened shortly before 1702 by Arthur Wells, a blacksmith, and John Gilbert, a bolter, and is only a stone's throw away from Christ Church. Just cross 2nd Street and walk north one-and-one-half blocks. Here among contemporary storehouses, wholesalers and the jobbers of commerce is a single street that provides a glimpse into the 18th century. It is named for Jeremiah Elfreth and was the home of carpenters, printers and craftsmen of all sorts. Benjamin Franklin once lived here although no one is sure in just which house. Betsy Ross visited the alley, for, although at the time of the Revolution Philadelphia was the second largest city under British rule (London was larger), the city itself was small by today's standards and most people in the city were known to one another.
Image taken with Nikon D7000, Sigma 4.5mm F2.8 fisheye. Used SPM, PS CS6, Adobe Camera RAW.
Thanks for looking.
