This was a last minute entry taken hours before the deadline... My original idea was to get a fisheye effect through a light bulb, but i tried it and no dice... i mounted my 300mm nikkor lens on my tripod to take a pic of the city with it, then i stood back and looked through it and it looked pretty cool... so here it is! Do you like it? Ha! who cares =) I like it... =)
Thanks to my dad for keeping me company and helping me out!

Compositionally, I think it could have been made a touch stronger by cropping it a bit differently. If the lens weren't quite so centered, it might feel more dynamic. For example, had you cropped some off of the right of the picture, that would have put the tripod further left and out of the center. (It would have also eliminated those two little dark spots that might be sensor dust or something). Another benefit would be that the part that is sharpest and in focus would become a more predominant part of the picture.
Technically, the exposure and colors rock. The focus on the glass is good, but the tripod is a bit out/soft and that takes just a tiny bit away from it, I think.
Overall, a good shot, and a good one for this challenge.
