Yes, converging verticals are less of a problem in outdoor shots - although I personally would restrict ultra-wide angle lenses (if I had one LOL) mainly to landscapes rather than architecture or people shots, or any shots with people in them, but as you say it's all a matter of personal taste. Anyway, that's what I meant: #2 is not only indoor but also contains people and articles which we know should be within certain proportions, however the shot has distorted them enormously. Whilst this could be used to advantage in creative photography, I don't think your shot falls into this category. Hope that's clarified my meaning a bit better. Not knocking your shot Graham, but my personal taste is that the distortion doesn't really go with this particular scene. Love the others tho'
