Artistic Fish Eye Play–Skyscrapers Towering Above
Back in January, I rented a couple of Wide-Angle lenses to take some pictures of a famous theatre in Toronto. I will have more pictures from that shoot in the coming weeks.
I chose to extend my rental of the 2 lenses, and here’s one of my favorite pictures:
