Flickr a Day 154: ‘Star of the Show’

Perspective and technique decide today’s selection, shot by a photographer who gives no other name than Wendell. Is that to emphasize his importance or to protect privacy? 🙂 Self-titled “Star of the Show” matches, as he explains, “fisheye adapter and f/32 for the star effect”. Effective is more apt, but in other ways, lacking.

There is what I presume to be distortion along with purple fringing when the photo is viewed in any larger size. But the composition is too appealing to pass by. Wendell, who signs his art Wink, captured the automobile on July 26, 2014, using the Nikon D5100. Vitals: f/32, ISO 360, 1/30 sec, 35mm. The product development engineer lives in Ventura, Calif. and joined Flickr in December 2006.
