I got a 15 mm Heliar from Stephen Gandy a couple of weeks ago. This 
is the first time I used a really wide lens.  It's been a gas.  The 
strange perspective is fun to play with.  I was about 5 feet from the 
tree in the first photo.

I used Ted's trick of framing in the 15 mm finder then levelling with 
the internal framelines before taking the picture.  It worked - most 
of the time.  Some levelling required in PS in a few.
