About Celebrating the short-lived cherry blossoms with traditional snacks and rice wine/beer is so popular that masses of these tented stalls spring up to serve the crowds. This image is slightly "de-fished" to make the perspective a litte more natural looking. But I didn't boost the saturation at all.

Yes Bertram, and now I have a simple and efficient way of "defishing" photos, I can use the Fisheye as an ordinary ultrawide-angle lens, knowing that I can make the image rectilinear if I want to, and leave it as equiangular if that seems unnecessary. The lens is tremendous value, and great fun once you master it. Of course to do that you need a love of wide-angle lenses to start with, and it does take a bit of effort and persistence... By the way, do look at the photo of me at Usefilm! It was taken by my friend Matsukawa San, again, back in Japan from his job in China for a few days. I think it's SO funny!

As far as sharpness and a clear a precisely drawn photo is concerned this fisheye does a great job !

Thanks, Keith. I've been depressed at the lack of reaction to this. I wondered whether I should tone down those rather strident colours (you know me!) but thought "Nah, this is USEFILM for goodness' sake!" My fisheye lens has rapidly become a favourite. Sort of a panorama in one, if you know what I mean...

I like your street scenes Roger. I find them really interesting, and with the addition of fishe-eye perspectives, they are a feast for us westerners. Lovely colour in this one too.

I normally try not to complain but I am really disappointed that this photo is sinking virtually without trace. I happen to think it's one of the best I've done recently... thanks for noticing it, Chris. I can always count on you for an encouraging comment, at least. Much appreciated.

Great lines again ~ the food counters, the paving slabs ~ all leading the eye into the shot!
Nice work, Roger.
Best regards, Chris
