Shot with the Sigma 70-200 + 2x converter - effective 400mm f/6.7 @ 1/1000th, iso 400.

Chris, this is a very interesting shot!!
It looks really quite arty, I like it..not that I'm anyway 'arty'..
But the butcher on the right looks kinda nervous or awkward...maybe he knows that all those knives above his head could fall down? There's a lot to look at in this pic. Is this a shop near the Bottle Shop at the bottom of the escalators near the car park at Neutral Bay?

Chris

I understand this was shot with Sigma glass, but it looks very distorted to me (like it's been horizontally compressed) eg the butcher has a very tall narrow head. Or is this the artistic effect you were after?

 LOL, it's another duck shot!

Peter - Geoff is right, this is a painting on the window of a gourmet shop hence the distortion and my title - in one plane

Ahhh . So the whole thing is a painting , or just parts?

Peter,
Is it your day?

this is quite a mind job...

This is Chris we are talking about here, of course it's a mind job

Well done Chris for the mind job, my mind is content now.

Haaarrrrrhhhhhh

Mic.

I was wondering why the lady had a fold line in the back of her head

Nice one Chris...

Funny thing is that I thought that you would pick the line in her head John

I thought you'd just been a little careless with your pano stitching - I wasn't game to comment

Yep

I'm having a bad one. Had to work all last weekend (first week of July we generate 1/5th of our revenue - makes for busy times and long hours).

Interesting shot/s. Seems to challenge our sense of what's real and what isn't.
