I recently rewatched a video, The Art of the Fisheye, by Gene Ho. He runs a wedding photography business. He demonstrated how he uses 1-2 cameras at a time with different fisheye lens attached.

One technique he uses is to start with the camera on or near the ground. He then rotates the camera with the lens going upwards for 5 exposures. No viewfinder is used. This will provide unique angles.

I took the attached with a similar technique, doing 4-5 exposures at a time.

I used a Nikon 10.5/2.8 fisheye lens on a Nikon D7500. Most or all were at f/11.

These were taken on the nature path near our new home in Georgia.

I still have trouble getting used to the fact that I don’t have to pay for a lot of photo processing. This technique would have broken the bank (my bank) back in “the day”:😎 Now when the chip is full you can review and delete and start over fresh again. I may have to reconsider getting a fisheye to toy with. Nice shots, by the way.

Like them. Thinking about buying the same lens. They don't seem too pricey.

Very interesting and excellent shots. Mahalo for your presentation. I have forgotten how much the fisheye lens changes a person's view.
