I like have a variety of looks, and a fisheye lens has been on my list for some time not only for nature, but for portraits. For those who don’t know, a fisheye is a really wide angle lens, so much so that it distorts a bit and makes things kinda round looking. It’s not a lens for every situation, but it can be a really cool effect. This 15mm Sigma Fisheye lens can have up to 180 degree field of view.
Well I’ve been playing with it and it’s pretty neat. Here’s a few shots of Cyrus, my wife Sondra, and brother Neil. Nothing amazing in the portrait quality here, just some fun shots.
I’m going to be experimenting with what I can do using a fisheye lens, including doing some nature work with it. Stay tuned… Gav
