Out and About… Brooklyn, NY
Photo by Ryan
A fisheye lens provides you with a certain level of stealthiness not found when using typical camera lenses. Since the field of view is almost a full 180 degrees, you can capture objects and people that assume they’re standing well out of the picture. In this photo, taken on the Brooklyn Bridge, the woman with the tattoo was standing almost directly to the right of my camera, yet she still appears on the very edge of the 180 degree view.
Incidentally, if you rearrange the letters in Brooklyn Bridge, it spells “Dork Nibble Orgy”.
