Great addition Corran! Love these circular images. Make them often with the Mamiya Fish Eye.
The Mamiya 37mm was my initial plan, what with the shutter. But I had the Pentax already so went with it, for now. Would love to see some of your circles!
One more, same location, not sure which I prefer yet:

I find each to be wonderful...but prefer the bilateral symmetry of the first. Bryan these are truly fantastic! Looks like you are really on to something with these!
Thanks John! The symmetry definitely works well with the frame. I love the sun shining with little sun stars through the background in the other though....
I'd say the first is the stronger composition, the second has more of a chaotic appeal.

Thanks 6x6 - I'm definitely going to try printing the symmetrical one.
And, I hope you all are still in the mood for some circular images :). I went on a short trip to Mississippi this past week. Here's something I just hung up to dry, and grabbed a quick pic with my cell phone:

A little world unto itself!
...thats it! A little world - more like the illusion that everything is trapped inside a glass sphere...the way things seem to be trying to push outwards yet having to yield because there is no escape! Would also be interesting to play with this "trapped" concept by/while incorporating human subjects.
