The world trough the eyes of Steven vd Staak

Hello everybody! Christmas is today officially over, still I wanted to share a picture I took 2 days ago… and thereby whish you all the best for 2009! Hope this will be a superb year for everyone! Anyway enough talk, photo’s I say!

We start with this picture. It’s special in three ways…
1: It’s taken with my new camera, the EOS 5D MKII.. And I love it!
2: It’s taken through my new 15mm fisheye lens.. finally fisheye! I wanted that feature since I had the 300D but now I finally have it…
3: I just like it haha!

 
It actually reminds me of this picture… and well I never posted it before so let’s do it now. This has always been one of my personal favorites.

To continue the series… here some escalators also at Amsterdam Bijlmer Arena. Also taken with the 5DMKII and the fisheye lens.

A toy bus, wanted to show my dad what my new 15mm lens is capable of… well…. this!

Then I tried a studio setup, I got some more pics but I keep those for later. For the primitive setup I’ve used I’m quite happy with the result. Sorry for the noise but ISO was at 6000 which is… awefully high.

This lens is actually less than 1 inch wide… so it’s a scale 3:1 or something. It’s a fisheye lens that you can put on a mobile phone… I’m actually quite happy ith the results from it… and it’s cheap!

One more from the series, by far not the nicest…but I liked the blue on the right. Somehow I look at that more than at the whole lens. Funny effect… I think.

And last but not least….

Also this post has been dedicated to all my friends and family who’ve been supporting my photography hobby over the last few years. And today I’d like to mention Hailie who showed me on msn why I do photography. She comfirmed it and that made me very happy. So Halie…. there ya go.

 Till next post… hope to add lot’s more since I got my new camera!

-Steven.

P.s.
Here’s a picture taken with my mobile phone in low light and with the wide-angle lens on it…

Oh….. and it shows some…. photography hardware! 6 bodies and 15 lenses…. Ah!
