Nice - a fisheye effect ? Love the green door.

Love the contrast and the title works very well! Awesome!

Zenitar 16mm Fisheye lens

lately is simply does not leave my camera, i carry my 43mm "just in case"

and its distortion effect, in my opinion is "just right"

also F2.8 can be a real life saver in dark situations.

We at least know you can take photos inside the TTC without problems.
You sure do a lot of traveling - one day its Moscow the next its Hogtown (Toronto for the uninitiated).

Good shot, I too like the fisheye effect.

I've noticed a tendency for marketers to treat diseases/infections as monsters lately. There's that monster that lives under your toe nail and makes it yellow, and that monster that lives--with his family, mind you--in your nose when you're sick. Makes for some interesting commercials/advertisements.

I really like the fisheye effect on this photo, too. The green door is a great attention catcher, and that monster is cute in a monsterish kind of way. Great photo.

Nicely done indeed ... the FE effect has worked well in this shot.

Nice title and image. Like the colours and perspective. On the subject matter hypnotherapy can be more effective than nicorette for some people. Get a lot of people for hypnotherapy who have previously tried gums and patches. It's a case of "horses for courses" I guess.

nicorette is a joke, or any other "nicotine" alternatives

since the body is chemicaly addicted to nicotine more than anything else.

a friend of mine quit smoking by substituting cigarettes with herbal cigarettes, "ecstasy" i dont know if anyone ever seen them, they have a butterfly on the cover. They taste like dried onions mixed with tree bark, but atleast it helped him battle the urge to "physicaly hold and smoke a cigarette", after about a month of that crap the nicotine was well out of his system and he had a much easier time quitting.

nicotine gums and patches do nothing!
