A Bit Fishy

By the afternoon the sun was out in force so I ventured out to Saddington reservoir about 2 miles from home with my new toy the 8-15mm Canon Fisheye.
For a while I just sat and enjoyed the scene with a pair of swans and their six signets swimming over hoping for some bread and then feeding in the weeds once they realised I had nothing to offer, then there were the carp swimming near the surface and every now and then jumping for some insect.
Eventually decided to try my lens and I'm quite pleased with the result, keeping the waters edge at the mid point has kept it straight whiles the rest is very curved (it's not a crop) with a 180 degrees field of view in all directions.
A very specialised lens which will get occasional use but my justification is that it will replace two other lenses which I will now sell
