FRONT DOORS

Used a wide angle/macro screw on lens combination to see downtown Cincinnati from a slightly different perspective. This may be the same way many future customers will see the graduates of this academic institution.

a very interesting way of having blur and sharpness, gives some irrealty to the picture, I like the processing and the picture.

I think you're right there Lorri, though the blurred edges do create a need to focus more on what's straight in front of you. I wonder if you get to drink the drinks you learn to mix.

I an even rarer than the Echidna you commented on, An Australian Ex Service man who never drinks, I have no need of those skills, nice shot!

I like the lens effect.

Jackscrap - bartender schools use colored water in training. Even the soda is fake.

Wonderful .... and good for you to wait for the pedestrian to enter the frame.

Very funny - love the interesting DOF you get with this lens combo.

Well, if Gisele said is true I'm not volunteering as a patron at this school. I too like the passing pedestrian. Looks like he was made for this photo.

Your funky focus ads an edgy feeling, as if one were already reeling from the alunmi's art.

I love this unique view of the school...the combined blur and that sweet spot really draws attention!

This is just amazing. I love the look. Is this two lenses joined together with some sort of mounting attachment?

Great look, I love the guy walking by too.

That's kind of lame to not use real ingredients in bartending school. How do they know if they have mixed up a good one?
