Double W I D E Toronto - At Night - 8mm Fisheye

So I went out and finnaly bit the bullet and bought myself a fisheye lense. It cost me close to 800 Dollars but was worth every penny and the year wait. Here are a few of my first shots with the lense, all at night. There will be many more to come and a follow up of the rooftop views in the daytime.

First, the lense:

Looks like a birdseye view.

But great observation pix there.

Good one :hilarious:

Cool photos... yep. A bit TOO fish for my taste.
I'd prefer a Lobster Eye lense to grip bubble butts on the street.

That's one hell of a lens. Love how you can see three coners of the street.

Very cool stuff WZ. Crisp shots too. But please do me a favor, don't ever take my pic with that lens (I need a slimming effect, not one to make me more stout. :rolleyes: :D ).

Thanks for the TO pics.
