warped minds

This looks so much like my elementary school. Must have been built about the same time. Very cool warp:-)

new lens ?

lucky you !

laffs at the title of your fishy photograph!
and the shadows! excellent.

Marvelous image. You are going to go bonkers with that lens. Perfect title. I disagree with Emerson; I think that everything is sacred.

Fabulous quote...and the image is a nice counterpoint.
Love the effect and the long shadows playing upon the building.

Love the fish eye!

excellent bw capturing...and nice title too

Beautiful black and white. Have a good evening. Antoine.

J'aime beaucoup

well there's GOD, then the integrity bit lol great shot Sharon!! kinda chilling for some reason

Love the fish eye angle, great bw! Nice shadows too.

Hey !!!!!!!! What happens to my glasses ???

The fisheye works with great effect here. Love the Long shadows. Did you use a Lomo or was this created with software?

NIce effect , i guess i can see your shadow ;)

Nice and strange photo.

Love these turned-round school memories, the long-legs shadows of our mind running to it again, the hand-rail line and the general shape as if within your/our own eye... and with Emerson quote, it explodes with deep clever meaning that touches me with sincerity. Thanks a lot, Sharon : this is a shot taken with heart first*

I like, this photography is full of suggestive shades.
You work perfectly with the "lomo". What facility!
Warm greetings

nice fish eye shot! :D

Good use of the fisheye here . . schools can become a place of the fear and exclusion your image suggests . . thought-provoking post.

J'aime beaucoup ! Bonne journée.

nice 180° wide angel shot! interesting contrast and bw! good Poto!

scary! reminds me of the possessed tree in Poltergeist.
arghh. Lovely image, and great use of wide angle (beats usual lomo close up of a dogs snout!)

Great use of the fisheye lens here. I love the atmosphere!

cool

Someone is having way too much fun, I see. :D Good for you! This reminds me, too, of some structure from my very distant past. HA! I love all the shadow-play.

Super capture Sharon! I see you are enjoying your new lens..... ;-)))

Terrifying one! Great !!

What amazing intriguing mood you've created with your lomo! It's evoking thoughts and emotions of all kinds! The framing and lighting are simply perfect! Wonderful wonderful work Sharon!!!!

Great how the building is all encompassed tightly into the frame.

You have a fisheye? .. great capture and treatment

Amazing photo as through a peephole (lens on a door) ...
Or how to see 180 °...

Excellent effet! Comme dans une boule de cristal!:)

La imagen con esa perspectiva se hace sobrecogedora.
Las sombras parecen invadir el edificio.

Fantastica.
MErce.

A fine bizarre looking building with the fisheye effect. It looks very good in black and white.
Well done.

Very very cool. I love the processing. Super tones.

A really fine image of the distorted school. The warped minds theme makes this a thought provoking image. Very well done.

The fisheye lens is very exciting! What a wonderful image created. I love the long shadows giving this a kinda creepy mood. I think we even get a glimps of you in the shadow....do we not?

Love it! cool shot( fish eye)

Beautiful shot!

WOW! I love this. Great shot

"Where is my mind" (Pixies)
A stunning play of contrasts, Sharon. You really got me with that low budget feel to it. Doesn't look like a first try, it's a brilliant composition & a great piece of art! All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

Love the composition..the shapes and forms..the shadows. Very creative!!!

wonderful effect "fish eyes" sharon!
! very nice!

It has been ages since I've seen anything form a "proper" fish eye lens. Not a cheap investment these days, enjoy it.

looks like an abandoned place ,and i like the overall shadows here. great approach as well with the fisheye!

Love that fisheye lens. This turned out awesome and I love it in B&W. : )

The harsh contrasts work very well in this dramatic and mysterious shot. Really fascinating!

Shadows of trees,
B&W,
Fish eye effect,
old building,

it's like a scary movie ;)

Very very good job! I love it

Oooh! Love fisheye shots. This one is so dramatic and moody and cool!

excellente composition

An awesome shot !

wonderful! :)

Fantastic, it seem that this one was taken with a fisheye? Which on did you use? I'm also thinking about getting one. A amazing shoot :D.

Nice use of fisheye!

ho the house of the big torments

Great shot!

i really dig this shot of yours.. ;) great shot.. :D

Really a great shot Sharon, love the effect from your lens on this structure. Excellent use of light and shadows. A fascinating and creative image.

I like the balance of this image - it is a great shot and the fisheye effect has a lot of visual interest!

full of mysterious ambience! fisheye or pinhole? very attractive!

Very cool and moody shot, the shadows really add some creepiness to it. And the fisheye is cool.

I just love your fish eye view! Wonderful and cool effect.

Let's hope that the way the schools are goin' to fill the minds of the ones they have to shape to hold the future is an open one. Shape it don't twist it!

Cheers Sharon.

wonderful work !

I really love your versatility with all the different tools you use to create your magical images. Do you process the film yourself as well?

Cool, I've always wanted to play with fisheye stuff, this is wicked!

Interesting effect and great play with shadows on the wall of the building.

un superbe effet !

Superbe et mystérieuse capture! Les ombres rehaussent d'une belle manière ce Beau N/B!!

You can do so much cool stuff with a fish eye!

Wow! Mystery image... Great effect with fish eye. I love it!

j'aime beaucoup les ombres, un style remarquable.
Bravo.

Great idea and image manipulation

Fisheye ! I like fisheye, Bravo !

Like beeing seen from my own flat and through the door. I wish I could see so far... just imagine... your eyes close your door... and you see australia... or japan... or the whole world. Fairy vision Sharon. You always lead me to dream.

Very great analogic picture. The trees seem to knock at the school door, like an invitation for open/dreamy walk. Amazing composition with a lot of tension.

blue, this is how my mind felt when I was in school! Ha!

J'adore !!!

wow. lovley fisheye.

ive always wanted to get fisheye lens. this is a fantastic capture. my desire to get one has increased. :)

Perfect quote for this image. I really like this one - although I generally don't like the fisheye lens since it's like looking at people during a bad drug trip. But this one I do like - especially those twisted shadows

Great use of fisheye to simulate aberration of the mind!! The long shadows are as ghosts from the past reaching out to engulf one's sanity!! So cinematic and bizarre!! Great work Sharon!!

Like the school of my nightmares.

Wow, great use of fisheye, especially in bw. It renders this ordinary building into a trippy and creepy building.

wonderful! your execution here gives the sense that the building is in one of those snow globes. so fitting for a school.

spooky, eerie, ominous... its like the tree's shadow is aggressively invading the building...! ;) excellent!

great world on fish eye mind..................................in translation.................en français dans le texte^^

If I stare at this for too long, I start having flashbacks to the video game "Silent Hill." This is a very cool picture, though. It almost seems like time was frozen to this moment of somebody's childhood.

very, very cool
