These photos were taken at Tate Britain mostly with the Samyang 7.5 FE. There are times when the Pana 7mm is just not wide enough :-) I've tagged the couple of pictures that were done with the 42.5mm.

This Rotunda is another wonderful blend of old and new that London is so good at.

Too many pictures but thanks for indulging me and for looking. As always these are best viewed large.

This first set in B&W shows the wonderful staircase that takes you from lower ground level to the ground floor of the Rotunda.

This second set shows the whole Rotunda including the spectacular dome.

Wow, is there any de-fishing going on?
 
Awsome!
 
Very, very nice. The B/W seems to do justice to the subject.

The one with the whole Rotunda however has a bit too much distortion for my taste.


Thanks for sharing.

Lovely Set. Thanks for sharing. Convinced me that getting the Samyang really is a no brainer and that I need to also go back to London and the Tate some day soon with it in my bag.
 
That's a really nice set. The first image is just fantastic.
 
A lovely set. Well done. More examples of "museum elegance." The b&w works very well.

So does the Samyang. The 42.5 shots are interesting too - they include the people included at a good scale relative to the architecture setting, if that makes sense. Would be interested in your impressions of the 42.5 lens, this being the first time I have seen photos from you using it.

Thanks Michael.
 
I'm learning to love the distortion - or at least I'm trying.
 
Fantastic! These are the kind of shots that win the magazine photo contests or sell at art shows when you make large framed prints out of them.
 
Thanks. It's one of my favourites too!

A very nice set Yaelle. The monochromes are wonderful and make the most of the pleasing geometric shapes.

Cheers Andrew - I am pretty pleased with the result (and myself) That FE is a tricky little beast and it was good to feel a bit more confident using it.
