Luca Brazi sleeps with the fisheye
Atlas
Roc Center X-mas Tree
New York Palace
Santa brought me an AF DX Fisheye-Nikkor 10.5 mm f/2.8g ED lens for my Nikon D70. So I thought of the idea of shooting NYC sites that I will miss in 5 years if or when I return to Vienna to live.
So for now it seems I will only shoot fisheye for this blog and I'm contemplating on shooting with this colorization function that I stumbled upon in photoshop. I know some people don't like it as some people people dont like fisheye lenses, but what can i say. A good friend of mine said to me that what is important is that I'm doing something. So I will trudge along in my hopes of having something special to look back on.
Some sites will be obviously recognizable and others not. I'm just going to shoot places that either I havent been to ever, or places that have some role in my life. I don't want to shoot photos of a place because it is a NYC landmark that everyone takes photos of. Of course there will be these landmarks that will work their way in to my photos too.
I look forward to my new project and I hope that people enjoy visiting my site and leaving feedback, opinions and of course many comments. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful new year!
