Looks familiar Doug, nice effect from the fisheye, beautiful colors you have captured. Is this from a while back? I would think the leaves would be all out by now in NC.

Wow.. great sunset shot, Dough! The Samyang 7.5 gives nice colors and perspective.

Thanks Charles - I took this about 3 weeks ago - some of the trees have been confused because of the light winter. I still have a large maple tree in my back yard that's just beginning to bud-out. :-)

Yoki, I appreciate the comment. I've just figured out that if you hold the lens perfectly level, the fisheye distortion is minimized - something more like a panorama. Cheers

Thanks Robert - not bad results for "guessing" at the focus. Cheers
