operation WAS a success!!!!!!!!!!

Explanation.
In skateboarding we call the fisheye a death lens. Most photographers recieved a board to the head during shoots b/c they were so close to the handrail or obstical, hence "death". It also contributed to the overal asthetics of cinematography during videos. The sig is shot in a cool style, and so is your car, that is what I was saying.:)

Makes perfect sense. I have always referred to this lens as my death lens, for obvious reasons :)

Werd, TJ. Your sig is awesome, and your avatar is even better. Event Horizon FTW. One of the greatest horror films ever.

When I see fisheye photography, I think of late 90s back-issues of Transworld.

That's all there fucking was for like... five years.

Skate photography is still 95% fisheye.

Yeah, the only time it isn't fishey is portrait stuff with medium or full format. And when videoing, the only time they use anything else is filler and super 8 or 16mm. It's pretty amazing the level of composition that people like Atiba and Moreford can achieve though. When you think about everything going on in a skate shoot, it can be boggling..... I guess that's why 1 out of 100 photos are perfect during a shoot.
