Yup; a fisheye. Borrowed from a friend, and this round of pics was in part a chance to try it out and see if I wanted to get one for myself. This pic:
kinda cemented the decision. Trying with the widest-angle 'regular' lens I had, there was no way I could get the entire nose into the picture without also including the sun. With the fisheye? No problem.
That's really cool! My experience with photography mostly involved a 110, so no fancy lenses for me (and I wasn't good enough as a kid to warrant them anyway!), but I love seeing what other people do with them. =)
