Technical Details

Although I use the Mamiya 37mm Fisheye wide angle often unless you use a fair amount of tip or tilt it does not show the extreme angle of view I used it for in this scene.
Mamiya RB 67 ProSD- Mamiya “C” 37mm lens - Velvia 50

Paul, the fisheye effect adds a strong component of movement to this scene…I’m getting dizzy :laughing:. The "straightness of the J-tree and it’s placement give it a strong presence. You’e also got good detail in the moon and lovely colors in the clouds.

Great effect here Paul. The colors in the sky are so smooth and nice. The Joshua Tree really stands out straight and strong, and the moon is icing on the cake. Cool image. :+1:
