Wow! If you could shrink that and put it in someones eye (as if it were there eye), that would be very cool. At first glance of the thumbnail view, that is what I thought it was. |

Well Done, Christina. You really do look happy here, and have used that fisheye most effectively. |

Congrats on the Blue.
I see that the fisheye has been efectively used in a number of recent challenges. You seem to have mastered using it... I'm jellous with my point and shoot.

Another terrific image. Well done.
I vividly recall your other fisheye image of the BCLA. I must get me one of these lenses, the results are fun.
Do you have the Nikon Capture 4 software? It would be interesting to see what this or the other image looked like after processing through the rectilinear correction process found within this Nikon program. |

Hi. I thought this was you, as I remembered your entry in the surrealism challenge. Like the fisheye perspective, and congrats. |

Thanks again for all your great feedback and votes. Just posting the lens again (I posted earlier but it's a little further down). I use the Nikkor 10.5mm 2.8 fisheye and I have a Nikon D70. I've had some great results with it so far and it's always in my camera bag. I highly recommend it to anyone who's interested in a fisheye. |

Many conga rats for you!

Thanks so much for your comments and votes. This ribbon is very exciting for me. I was using a Nikon D70 with a Nikkor 10.5mm fisheye lens. I set it up on a tripod and turned on the timer and then layed down in the flowers, less than a foot from the camera and this is the effect I got. It was a beautiful day and I thought about this challenge as soon as I saw the meadow. |

Maybe I could give one suggestion, but it's so minor. It'd be cool if there were more sky. But hey, if there WERE more sky I might say nix the sky ahaha. I'm really reaching for any kind of criticism. It's all love. Great shot :) |

I like the concept, title and the fish-eye perspective but I think this idea might have done more for me without the model. I don't know what was on top but you might have wanted to leave the trees uncut. Very nice clean shot otherwise. Good Luck! |

Absolutely beautiful. Very evocative. My only complaint is that it looks like the white balance is a little off. It feels just a tiny bit "muddy" colour-wise. Still a solid 9 though. |
