Just thought I'd upload a couple of pictures taken on Wednesday. It would be nice if other members add to them here. Thanks!

1. Seeing Double



2. Model Husband ( Where's Wally? )

Is that top one photoshopped, to include the same chap twice?

As an experiment, I tried photographing some graffiti with a fisheye lens to see if it would give a 3-D effect.

For this first shot, I had to stand in front of a parked car and was no more than a couple of feet away from the painting.

I found this chap working in the 24 hour Beigel Shop at the end of Brick Lane.

The title probably says it all.

Exterior view of the beigel shop featured in an earlier post.

Sorry for the late reply David. Yes, your guess is correct.

Good to see how a fisheye can be used to overcome obstacles. Works well here.

Thanks, Nina. I am having to be careful with this lens at the moment as I am still experimenting with getting the best from it. It is one of those ocassions when if you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

A few of my Brick Lane shots taken on the 23rd April. And a big "Thank you" to Nina for arranging this enjoyable evening practical event, which we really need to do more of I think!
