      Hum, I now see the stated theme is not “looking thru unusual lens”, is “unusual lens”.
      Just that gustovs description of his sample pic (entry) talked about looking thru something, and using that something as an unusual lens.

      so, I need to ponder some more.

      i can see that one or two pics Had nothing for unusual lens, but did use some other technique to produce some distortion.

      Need to ponder more.

        All are interesting images. All are unique. All are successful in their own way. A vote for each seems reasonable.
        So this week an abstention from voting here.

                  Multiple of the images are great. All for different reasons. Can’t find any one criteria to use as a tie breaker.

                  dorks is interesting good image, kept my attention , can’t tell if looking thru something of a lens or if a reflection.

                  Bob baatfam great photograph (as usual) , this time using such a wide angle (edge of light looks further away than center) that it is unusual lens. Yah, the fisheye lens makes the bikes headlights look bug eye.

                  dpep & marvinsc & rich had my attention too.

                  but vote for gustov for the way the distortion looked like a speed/motion blurr , but mostly on half the image so other half gave good view of situation. And that he thought to do such without prompting of this challenge.

                    This is a tough one; I am not sure what criteria I should be using. But Rich has the one I would be most apt to hang on my wall. It looks like a nice watercolor painting. It gets my vote.
