Unbelievably wide

This is my first ever wide angle lens. I am new to photography and wanted to buy a wide angle lens or fish eye lens. Since I was in a budget, I chose EF-S 10-18mm wide angle lens. When I tried the lens for the first time, I couldn't believe the area it captured. It may be because it's my first time with such lens.

Image quality wise, I noticed that there's curvature on edges of image, was able to remove it to some extent using LightRoom profile. But curvature cannot be removed completely. It's not bad as you may think, please see some pictures taken from lens if you have any doubts.
