Triptych of vertical panoramas from the Lomo Belair X/6-12. As you can see, the plastic fantastic lens on the Belair is not exactly what I'd call rectilinear. It's still a fun camera to use and play with, since it's little more than a glorified pinhole in functionality - it does have auto-exposure, and two f-stops to pick from, and zone focusing. But otherwise, you just aim and click, and you get what you get.

You're right. It even bended the white building in the background.
But a very nice portrait, still. Like looking through the three windows of your spaceship.
I really like it.

Actually, the white building in the background IS curved you can't see it in this shot but there's a drum-like structure in front of that, so combining the curved tower with the circular drum has earned the building a nickname - the toilet.

My Own World: A wooden porch just built on the back of my home. I spend as much time as possible here, overlooking my spacious backyard.
It is my oasis, my comfort zone, my sanctuary...

My sun room, overlooking the porch and yard, for the days when it is too cold, rainy or snowy to be outside.
My Indoor Oasis...

Thanks, Ned. I really enjoy MSA! It keeps me out there shooting instead of just watching me grow old. I love thinking of ways to interpret the different themes, given my travel limitations.
