Use your camera to show us how something can be distorted in an artistic manner. As long as something is distorted in your shot, you are on topic. It's up to you to interpret what we mean by distortion, including physical versus conceptual.

Edit: Added artistic to make sure the photos are "nice"

I took this at 10mm pointing the camera up and it has a pretty pronounced distortion.

i think its just a tad to browed for a starting idea it is great and i lov the whole premmiss but something that was brought up in my challenge sugestion thread is that for these challenges to work they have to be dummy proof and this has some big gaps.

the other thing is it will become very subjective in voting, weather the distortion is tastful(for the art end of things), weather it is there, and weather or not there is too much.

those are just a shallow start to many more problems in voting.

the idea (as a photog.) is to make your aduience connect with the image in the blink of and eye and know what it is or be so stuck on it they will think on it for a long while if u give the ball to them to soon in the composition prosses they will run to far and to fast to ever get it back to u.

my 2¢ on the whole thing
well inosieated needs more thought to make it solid.

I would say a lot of people on this site have a problem presenting someting that is not distorted. Perhaps that should be the chalenge "produce an image that is not distorted." Or how about disturbed.
