Thank you, Brian. I know that fisheye lenses do not appeal to everyone. From time to time, I enjoy playing with them (I have two, one auto, one manual) to see how I can put them to creative use. They are especially fun for 2D, making some "impossible" shots "possible". For 3D, the editing is a lot of work and sometimes impossible to make a workable pair. Careful thought needs to be put into the shooting, otherwise you can't even get off first base.Thanks for looking and commenting, Brian. Ray

Ray, Although I never cared much for the fisheye lens except in rare instances, your image presents an artistic rendering of the subject. Congratulations on your alignment efforts. : )
Cheers, Brian

It is probably obvious that both of these were taken with a fisheye lens. Believe me, they were not easy to align, but I am getting better at it. I have grappled with so many of these alignment problems, that when I die, my grave will be perfectly parallel to the equator. People will stop, look at it and say "good depth". Anyway, these were taken with my Nikon, equipped with a Sigma 4.5mm (6.75 equiv.) lens. I have not yet completely come to terms with using this lens for 3D, but I have discovered a few things that a fisheye is very good at. I still am wearing training wheels when it comes to processing the images. I would say that it is a fun lens to try some new things "once in a while", but it is not for the 3D beginner or the fainthearted. Challenging, fun, and stimulating for sure. The images are of a 1955 Ford Thunderbird
convertable with an "aftermarket" continental kit. Taken in Vicksburg, Michigan last weekend. No attempt was made to correct the lens distortion. Thank you for looking, guys. Ray |
