    Default Gannet-scape

    Gannetry, Bonaventure Island, Quebec

    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!

    Great pattern and the fisheye makes this even more interesting.

    Fish-eye was the right choice here.
