A few weeks ago I bought another fisheye lense...
I already had a few before and sold them, but now I strongly needed a new toy
And the new one has a pretty nice minimal focus distance - perfect for stupid fisheye lense pics

Whatever, after a hand full of really ugly close distance selfportraits, a hand full of funny shots of my daughter and finally a discussion with my girlfriend about how she hates fisheye lenses ... it was time to test it in the field.

but too bad - I hardly ever want to loose time for making pics instead of searching for more snake so I just used it once so far

great shot ! how many mm is this ? 8mm, 10mm ?

As I said - cool !

I like the shot because you can't easily tell it's taken with a fisheye.

nice gear !

I tried a fish-eye view with an in-situ Asp viper... Not really easy !
I have a samyang 8mm, not very nice with macro...
Anyway that's not soooooo bad.
(I love your picture and I would like to do the same )

the forecast for today was great so I took a day off
4-5 hours of sunshine and 18°C - very promising but at the end it was: 0 hours of sunshine and 16°C
whatever, it was a great day with a LOT of snake

well, if there is no sun...there is no reason to hurry and so I played a bit with my fisheye...but its really not easy to get a good shot

so here just a funshot ;-D

Haha, great pic. Looks really funny.

@ Alexandre Roux: can you please show us another picture of this beautiful red viper? Or do you have a link to more pictures of it?
