I very much debated entering this. I'm not super keen on it, so I hope it at least stays above a 5. None of my other ideas were panning out, and I have been wanting to try out a low/wide perspective. I think it worked ok, but I wish I could have gotten it even wider (to get to distortion more pronounced).
