Fish-eye-full Tower

Johannes Leistner is an amazing photographer with a prodigious amount of work available on Flickr. What really caught my attention, though, was his series of fisheye photos around Paris. Considering my impending vacation one week from tomorrow, it's pretty easy to understand why these snaps arrested me.

As much as I've been shooting film lately (I'll hopefully be uploading some more tomorrow), this inspires me quite a bit to take as many pictures as I can around the City of Lights. I'm not looking forward to packing the lead-shielded bag for my film rolls, but I'm excited about the potential results.

How do you get your camera to do fish-eye photos like that, cuz those pics looked pretty awesome:)

Well you need either a specialty fisheye camera, or a camera with interchangeable lenses and a fisheye lens to go with it. And those lenses ain't cheap...
