I shot this in Amsterdam on vacation. This was the first time I really tried to use this wide angle lens I bought recently. I was shooting by hand, crouched on the side of the street.

Oh that's Amsterdam in a nutshell. Wonderfully captured with the warehouses and a girl on an interesting bike. You can wait for this the whole day without catching it and you did it. Good!

Very nice, easy feeling shot. The shadows around the girl/bike add to this, as well as the lines, as they make my eye go deeper into the shot. Her relaxed "style" adds a lot to this shot.(7)

this is overall something good. The elongation of the bike works fine for me.It emphasizes the long street. Good Stuff

nice "photojournalistic" style shot, I could see it in newspaper with a story about end-of-year. You may have been able to crop from the R and exclude all the half completed cars without missing anything. still, a fine shot

Interesting perspective in this photo...that bike looks a mile long. Fascinating photograph with all the details of this street!

Was a fisheye used on this or just a super low lens?

I love the perspective in this, the wide angle look. The colours are great too.

Love the distortion of the wide angle lens. The front wheel of that bicycle looks huge.

I really like the 'stretchy' feeling to this, very nice composition and colors

Great looking distort on the bike with the wide angle

The front of the bike seems stretched. That area looks cool.

Good use of the Fish Eye.

I like the distortion - gives a sense of "going somewhere" to the young lady.

the superwide angle really works well for this image - the colors and details and sharpness and skewed view are awesome! 10
