I spent an entire visit to the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago shooting Fisheye. How 'bout that for a theme?

It would be cool to go in there with all the non-tank lighting extinguished. The reflections are annoying...

Wow, very cool! I love that place.

Would anyone be interested in buying a "Like New full box" Zenitar 16/f2.8? I will send it to marketplace in couple days.

It's in top shape, only used once to test it. I already have the DA10-17 so I don't really need the Zenitar.

Like it very much Ter-or. Whats in pic 2, rays?

**TER-OR** · 08-04-2011, 09:51 AM

Yes, that's an open-topped and glass floor/ceiling tank for rays and skates. I think skates, though I'm not sure. We were lucky to be there during feeding time when they were getting some yummy squid, fish and shellfish.

Thanks all. Truth told, I've struggled to find subjects and settings that were appropriate for the effect the 10-17 produces. But when it works, it works.

Here's another stab at it...

Very nice! Look at those beautiful green eyes!

Arizona Dave · 08-04-2011, 06:23 PM

I just got my Samyang 8mm Fisheye! (Branded Bell&Howell from Beach Camera on Amazon for $249)

Here are a couple of my first fisheye shots from last night.

loco · 08-04-2011, 06:31 PM

Those are terrific, Arizona Dave. I especially love the second one! Can't believe you got lightning in it, plus the beautiful lighting from the house!

dom1610 · 08-05-2011, 01:28 AM

Nice shots Arizona Dave. Incredible colours and that lightning capture is stunning.

Mr. B · 08-05-2011, 02:12 AM

A couple of shots from last night as I was going home. Nothing special, but there will be more
