Distortion can be pretty ugly with this lens (I've lots of grotesque images to show myself), but keeping the subject centered keeps things under control I think. The low angle helps too. I like this spare reality as only bw can do. Lucky with the comp too if I understand how you shot it, but sometimes that's instinctive too.

True. It was an instinctive hip shot, as I was with my back to them, and didn't notice them coming.

Interesting image. The old man reminds me of my father.

I actually like the distortion here - the people don't seem too strange and I like the elongated tree. Interesting work you are doing.

A strange effect overall, with two people who look friendly enough but (because of the lens chosen?) also seem very distant and far away in the frame.

It seems there is a large amount of distortion going on here. Not sure if it helps or hurts the image, or if it matters at all. It's nice to see what I am presuming to be a father and son taking a walk.

I like this one, the exposure on the subject is good, you have the lines of that rail leading to/from them from/to the right, there is a kind of motion in the front part of the wheel chair, all very nice. Only small thing I would change is the crop, I think you can crop part of the road, placing the people more on the rule of thirds
