You have a good one here. Immediate impact that grows on me. Sometimes my reaction is so out of synch with the majority that I'm embarrassed. But this shot works for me because of the unexpected posture of the pigeon centered among the other elements that all appear spattered with white paint. Unnatural and/or stylized as if "painted". The twist of paper adds a necessary out of place element that to me keeps it all rooted in reality like litter on the street.

This is really good Alex. Sharp and I can't see any distortion. 30 yrs ago I had a Widelux camera with the lens in a rotating drum also about 120 deg. The result was curved horizontal lines however.

The silhouettes work well to enhance the otherwise clicheed sunset.
