Many thanks all- I should have posted that barn in B&W too, I tried it and it looks quite good.
Richard ..are those vultures or turkey vultures you have there ?- I assume the regular ones. You really need to get the camera with the lens attached at the ready and the settings already dialled in-maybe on one of the 'custom settings'. To have a bird like that flying around you is something - I'd love to see some photos of them.I've learnt to have the camera/lens at the ready for our back yard shots, ( we call it a garden though) I've missed some good ones with the gear being in the bag.
The garage (gas station) where that old red car was is closed - defunct, so I assume the car is,having said that it looks to be in good condition so maybe it's roadworthy but thinking about it maybe it's sort of a museum. I just had 5 mins. to take the photo and didn't think about the setting. They were the very first shots I took with the fisheye too.
I need to think out of the box re. the fisheye but even the 17-40 at 17mm will cause poles to lean and here's the answer. http://epaperpress.com/ptlens/ Only $25 too. A friend (chase friend) in the US told me about it,he uses it and has sent examples of how it straightened the insides of his Prairie barn photos and power lines poles in his weather shots.
I'm getting all my photos (in categories) into my MobilMe (Mac) gallery and each has a folder and each has an url so it's solving my 'no website' issue - I'll be able to post an url address so I'll try it out on you good folks soon Lol.
