Thanks for your comments, Bruce; I'm glad you liked it. I did lie on the ice for some shots (that haven't been developed yet), but not using that lens. That thing is so wi-i-i-i-de that Pete was whizzing by only about a foot or 18 inches from my shoulder. I'd be worried about being run over were I on the ice with the fisheye, and with those spiked tires that they use: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3128016&size=lg being run over isn't a pleasant thought! <vbg> We'll see if any of the b&w "lying on the ice with a regular lens" shots come out. Thanks again. Trying to use the fisheye in a non-cliche manner is turning out to be more fun than I imagined. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
