Fisheye "close-ups"

I returned from Japan on Friday and had a chance to fool around some more this weekend with the Fish-Eye 10-17mm lens. Michael and Miki brought the kids, Yuta and Yoji, over for lunch. It's amazing how close you can focus with this lens. It really forces you to stick the lens right up to your subject's face. Thankfully, our grand-kids feel very comfortable seeing grand-dad with a camera, so we had a fun time. All photos shot at 10mm, f/3.5, ISO 200 and 1/300 to 1/350 sec. Nice afternoon California coast light always helps.
