Double Arrrgh. According to the Blurb website, mine is still being "processed" and wont even be shipped until 24/2 even though I ordered on 13/2..... Bugger! Bugger! Bugger! Oh bugger it. Here's another one..... Bugger! Marnie - thanks for the kind comment. Yes wide angle but not a fisheye - 16-45 mm zoom at 16mm. The oval shape is the natural shape of the headland.
