    Default Fisheye Grunge

    This old Chevy truck is rusting away in a field near my rural home. I borrowed a Sigma 15mm fisheye lens for a week, earlier in the month and had to try it out on this wreck. Back at home I ran it through Topaz Adjust 5 under the old Psychedelic preset (I think) that was in Adjust 4.

    Look forward to comments.

    Love the fisheye perspective. I was thinking of punching up the colour a bit, but I think the more subdued colours work well with the vintage feel.

    I love it! Every time I see a cool image like that it makes me want a fisheye. Nice processing Andrew!

    Hi, Andrew, I like the fish-eye look. I've got that lens and never seem to drag it along. Maybe this will inspire me

    Andrew, this is a different and interesting application of the extreme wide angle and I like it. That preset really brought out the character of the old truck.
