I was fortunate enough to legally visit the top of the Golden Gate Bridge one fine day. I

normally don't care for fisheye lenses, but in this case the curved horizon effect seemed

appropriate. The curved elements worked well together here. Comments welcome

Thank you for knowing the perfect lens to chose for this rare event. Absolutely could not be done better. 7/7

I agree with Sidney. It's the perfect lens for a perfect vantage point. How the heck did you get up there in the first place?

This is an amazing shot and you've truly captured the essence of being there while giving a nice detaile layout of the area. It's an asset that the bridge is orange as it provides a nice complement to the soft blues and greens.

A truly Vertigo inducing perspective. A very unique perspective and opportunity. Great choice with the fisheye. I've used one a couple times on an old Canon FTB. Never could quite get the hang of it. This works perfect. Thanks, MP.

A unique perspective - Outstanding use of curves, lines to keep the eye moving around the image. I am not sure how you got up there-do you work on the bridge. Way too scary for me. Thanks for taking me there!

Rarely does my fear of heights come into play while looking at a photo, but right now I have goosebumps! The fisheye lens was a great choice for the curve of the horizon, and also for the accentuated height. And also, it just seems nice to see a picture of the GGB from a completely different perspective. Very nice work!
