Recently, we posted an article on the use of a fisheye as an everyday lens. While writing that article, I came across some amazing photos that are perfect examples of how a fisheye lens can make your images stand out far above the rest. If you’re thinking about buying one, or perhaps borrowing a friend’s, then take a peek at these photos for some fisheye inspiration.
