Hi nice pics all, I do have a gear question, las one is from a fisheye lens whereas your gear list doesn't mention one. Just wondering which lens you used and any more pics from this lens. I am still not sure how to use a wide lens much less a fisheye one

Thank you very much, Ashutosh. All these shots were taken with Olympus PEN. In my gear list, you will see I have said "Various lenses" with Olympus PEN. The fisheye lens was a Samyang 7.5mm manual focus lens. The other images were taken with a 25mm f/1.8 Olympus lens (35mm equivalent 50mm). For these monochromes, I have used only JPEG shooting mode with built in option "Grainy film".

For using an Ultra-wide lens or a Fisheye lens, just go out with your gear and start shooting. Don't bother much in the beginning. Shoot images to your liking and process them. You will master this all bv yourself. Just remember one thing, where you are holding your camera is important, camera facing up or camera facing down, or you are shooting holding the camera close to the ground (like in sea beaches).

Enjoy shooting, it's a wonderful thing to keep you happy.

Very nice image making, Prabir.  Reminds me of long ago, a Nikon F, and Tri-X.  Fond memories rekindled.  :)
