Fish Eye View of Heaven

Best view original size.

After handholding my "5D + 180L Macro + 580EX Flash + extender" combo for the last couple of months for photo shooting of macro stuff with intense attention for minimal range of focus, my left wrist was almost busted. What a joy it was to put on my fisheye lens and take a few fun shots.

This image is to share with you the wonderful experience of seeing ordinary views with a fisheye lens. Hope you like it.
