Making a believably nice portrait with a circular fisheye is a remarkable achievement - kudos !!

Ditto what Bjørn said, plus the processing balance between interior and exterior is tastefully done.

I like them also

Wouldnt mind having a circular fisheye - a lens which is quite difficult to get something different and good of at the some time.
Easy to fall into the trap of doing the same old thing all the time.
