Image created with the Canon 15mm fish-eye lens hand held but resting on the tower railing. Glanced at double-bubble in the hot shoe just before depressing the shutter button to level the image. (If the horizon line is off even a bit with the fish eye, you usually lose lots of the image after rotation and crop so it pays to be right on...) ISO 320. Evaluative metering +1/3 stop: 1/125 sec. at f/18.

Hi Artie,
Now this is what I was expecting. Very nice use of the fisheye. All the diagonal lines compositionally....from the shoreline of the right leading up to the tree line from the left intersect and form a focal point and then my eye is drawn back in to the bird colony mostly from the curved horizon from the fisheye. Very nice birdscape!
Man........getting separation of the birds there has to be fun!
How COOL! I saw the image and the fish eye curve at the top and immediatly liked it. This is what that lens was made for Arthur! You did excellent here.
