A UWA on my short list of lenses to buy. I used my Sigma Mini-Wide II 28mm for these since it has a nice manual focus ring that's easily set to infinity. Pentax makes a 10-17mm fisheye that's mainly, uh, fishy on the 10mm end.

and a 12-24mm http://www.pentaxforums.com/reviews/pentax-12-24mm-lens-comparison/introduction.html
or the beautiful little 15mm f/4 Limited prime... http://www.pentaxforums.com/reviews/pentax-da-15mm-f4-limited-review/introduction.html
It's only money...
Two more from last night, looking out over my driveway

I need to get further out of town, away from light polution, the next time they're out like this. Last night was level 6 or 7, meaning they were out big and bright for several hours.

Fuck man, I'm so jealous.. Anytime I'm way up north I always get some killer milky way shots, but haven't lucked out on the aurora borealis yet!
An oldie I re-worked.

With those crazy lights you could probably drop the ISO a bit and raise the shutter to get rid of some of the noise.

I also forgot, again, to set the camera in raw.
Here's how you fix that. Don't ever shoot anything NOT in RAW. Ever.
Seriously though. ![finger2](/images/graemlins/default/finger2.gif)

MetalheaD - is that a tattoo or fat rolls? Just seems off.
rcurley - I like that shot. I'd spot removal/PS out the little piece of cloth on the toe, it sort of sticks out to me.

I didn't even notice that. That's straight out of the camera with no touch up or crop, so I'll revisit it

I was just about to say that's the best pic you've posted (Then I read your buddy took them, lol) At least it will give you some ideas.

I did a quick edit on that image since it looked quite flat.

I think shots like this need a little more detail, but that's my take on it.

Parker, did you just HDR the shit out of that thing? ![laugh1](/images/graemlins/default/laugh1.gif) OB1, it's not his pic, pretty much free reign especially if he's posting 'edits' No, but in a sense yes. I improved the shadows, gave it a little contrast and clarity, remove some white clips and gave the rocks and surrounds a little bit of a burn.
It just looks a little HDR-ish because the shadows have more detail and I was working with a compressed JPEG.
