Wow, such a heated debate!
As a scientist, I like pationed civilized discussions!
As a scientist, I also feel obligated to clarify the possible confusions
that occured in the process.
A. Perspective and compression.
First, I would provide a sort of rabbinistic response:

Thanks for posting the details, Igor - I can't always remember the
science, and sometimes I can't grasp it all, but I definitely am in
the why I love science school. And well aware of the portrait
lens effect - my second favorite lens.
The only reason I ever see for using a wide angle is if

I like it. I like the way the swirl of tram tracks and paving stones draw the
eye to the building, and I like what the fisheye does to show the context of
the subject.'
I also think it could benefit from more post-processing, to
Works for me. With a little tighter cropping on the L R sides it would be
even better IMO.

Time-to-time I am experimenting with the Korean 8mm fisheye lens.

Thank you, Malcolm, Jack, Brian, Alan, Bruce, Ken, and John for sharing
your thoughts!
Brian and John, you pinpointed one of the things that bothers me here:
the curvature of the tower. I think for this type of shots, the
composition that would work better should have the tower right in the

Well, what's the point to shooting through raindropped glass?
WTPT standing on a chair and shooting down on a small group?
WTPT shooting a closeup of a marching band from a great distance with
a telephoto?
WTPT shooting a scene's reflection in a puddle?
WTPT trying anything different?
On Thu,
Have never grasp the point to such
mechanically produced distortion.

No, too distorted. A pano would be better. Fisheye is really a novelty sort
of thing. Nice building.

Bruce - in all your examples, you are capturing something your eye can
see or did see without recording it with a camera...
Not the same at all as using a fisheye -
which produces an image the human eye can't see - until
after the camera has captured it..
So perhaps not the best comparison to
Ann, if we take the telephoto example, you will get pronounced
compression that your eyes would not have given the scene.
If I stand on a chair above two people, the taller of who I place
behind the shorter one, using a wide angle lens I can make them both
look about the same size. I used this

I'm not sure that is true - it is something I used to think but then
somewhere someone showed something taken with a 50 mm lens and
Good choice for a fisheye.

I kinda like it; funky, unusual shot.
I'd just crop in to remove a little of the sides and bottom; eg lose
the bus left, and the pole right.
