Picasso had his "Blue Period." In the future, blogologists will study Althouse’s "Fisheye Period."
(Okay, I admit it. I’m all proud of myself for having invented the word "blogologist.")

Oh, foooey!
Actually, those building slightly bent like that remind me of Picasso's cubism.
Do you have a ship's wheel up there as well?
And a spyglass.
Picasso too was every-perspective-at-once, making his late porn period novel. ``347 suite'' for example.
Steer away before it's too late!
Sometimes it's good to turn around
And look the other way
And show why folks love Brooklyn so --
A homey place to stay.
Why you still all up in my borough?
Ann-
Is this lens a drug-substitute? Are you going to cover Byrds' covers next?
It's the opposite of a spyglass. The fisheye pushes everything away.
Ann, what's the deal with Brooklyn? I've been reading for years and I can't remember, nor find any mention of, the reason why you are currently residing in my (newly acquired) home city.
I like the photos. What camera body are you using? Take any photos of the (meager) snowfall?
Fish-eyes are great for action photography, like skateboarding.
Kenny: Althouse is teaching at Brooklyn Law School this academic year. See this post.
