I don't usually go for stretched, tilted and distorted persepctives, but I personally think this one turned out rather well - some wonderful vaulting: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/UK/York/york0232scan-Edit.jpg.html More wide angle shots from York - street photography in the sense that I was shooting out on the streets. Using lenses this wide (12 and 15 mm) seems to make people look like figures in an architects or artists impression for urban planning - somehow unreal and out of place. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/UK/York/Lisianthus_Whitby20070009.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/UK/York/Lisianthus_Whitby20070026.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/UK/York/York_centre.jpg.html This street artist didn't really stand out in the full colour shot or in the BW conversion. So I did both in PS :-) http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/UK/York/_MG_4704_edited4_edited-1.jpg.html Here he is again, bothering my missus: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/UK/York/MG_4709_edited_1.jpg.html Enjoy taking a short walk around York, and best to all from Hannover Douglas
