Trying out my new Sigma fisheye lens at the pool and cabana area in my neighborhood. Also played with the color a bit.

Nice frame for that SoCal poolside scenery, Patricia, it all looks so warm and inviting! Enjoy your sunshine and watch out for lens flare!!! #365245Stanley J. Contrades February 06, 2004
Hope you have lots of room at your place, Patricia. With shots like this you're asking to be "invaded" (LOL)! I'm kinda safe with that big 'ol ocean out there ;-) And it's raining, cloudy, and windy anyway. That lens really is giving you sharpness up front. Good catch!Patricia Marroquin February 07, 2004
Stephen, Bill, Carol and Stan, thank you!Bill, thanks for not telling me what you think of the photo. LOL! Sorry 'bout that! :-)
Carol, thanks for the warning about lens flare. I tried the lens out right away on the dogs and saw how overexposed the images were, so I now know what you mean!
Stan, I think it's much more likely that you'd be invaded; after all, you live in paradise! Mahalo! -- Pakelekia #366269

Allan, Stan, Bill and Jean, thank you! It's cool that one of the first experimental images with my new fisheye was honored. It's fun to try new things. :-) #439721Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
