This photo was taken using a 16mm fisheye lens. The fisheye lens can create an unique perspective not seen in other lens. However do not overuse it or your photos will look boring. Due to the wide angle, it is easy to include a lot of empty foreground or worse still , clutter foreground. In the photo above , some cropping is done after printing to reduce the bare foreground.
