Indeed...
The problem was to carry the D5 and D4s with 4 lenses, including this fisheye anvil.
Not good for my back.

Mongo is not a fan of fisheyes but these had him looking intensely and actually enjoying some very good images.

Lovely work all, but #2 & # 6 stand out to me.
I struggle to fill the frame using my 20-35 wide open, but after seeing your series I have no excuse not to try harder.

#6 and 8 for me.  Others are enjoyable, too!

7 was my favorite, until I saw 8. Color really bumped things up for me in this group of shots.
