Here is another image I made a few years ago. Coincidentally, it was made with my 16mm fisheye.  I know, it seems I’m stuck in “fisheye limbo” here, but I still like the shot.  Notice how in today’s shot, the fisheye lens curves the horizon line adding interest to the composition.  The sunset colors always make for a dramatic shot, too. Camera specs; Nikon D1x fitted with Nikkor 16mm Fisheye Lens, F5.6 @ 1/500 second, ISO 400.  Enjoy!  -David
