Laurent, I'm about to rent a wide-angle - first time playing with one. This shot of yours, is my first master class on how to use it effectively. Really nicely done. Félicitations.

Peter....Be warned!!!Going WA is addictive;when I first purchased this Sigma ultra wide 10-20mm,I was somewhat taken aback at the distortion at the edges especially when used at the 10 mm end,but then it grew on me to the point of using the distortion as a seeked feature,especially when shooting tall objects which are pulled if not centered on the shot.Placing these tall subjects such as lighthouses and churches will induce a lean,more pronounced as you move towards the edge.Also,if you venture to use a circular polarizer on the WA,it will create visible banding/dark areas in the skies which can be a distraction/irritant to some.This said,I have a permanently fixed circ.polarizer to mine and all of my landscape shots are done this way.Yes,another important point I learnt was to stay away from this setup when shooting people....as distorted faces are not really pretty!Hope vou enjoy your trial shoot with the WA and enjoy it as much as I do;I have just purchased a relacement Sigma for my almost worn out original workhorse.Salutations-Laurent

Great advice, Laurent. Many thanks. I'll let you know if I get anything good from my initial rental period.
