    This was actually my second frame take with my fish; the 2001 was my first frame.

    Both were taken on my tripod with the body/camera pointing straight upward while I was lying down underneath my tripod with my cable release and a one million candle watt light. I was concerned about the light spillage with the light and trying to keep low enough so that I wouldn't be in the frame.

    I think I was closer to the belly of the beast (I think I see another camera in photo #5), taking this shot:
    I still think it was use! And I like you framed the moon-star within the crane thumb.gif

    I have a shoot that morning, but my evening looks free. Where do I sign up :D
    I haven't seen a sign-up yet, but I'll let you know when I see something about it.

    That's some of the most creative use of a fisheye I've seen. I love the sunset colors in the reflection of the first shot as well. Great work all around. thumb.gif
    ... blush... Thank you so much for the kind words! I think it will more luck than skill or know-how. For the fisheye, I took an educated gamble and it worked. rolleyes1.gif

    As for the brick photo, the reflected light is not from the sun, but a mixture of sodium vapor, mercury vapor, and moonlight + light inside of the building. I'm still not very comfortable with the different type of lights and dont' really notice it until is see a photo and wonder -- where did that color come from?
