Taking obscure pics of cars

[nick guest]

Hey guys n gals,I'm on 1100d canon EOS can anyone point me in the right direction of a lens that will make special pics close up of cars and funny angles on them?

Do you mean a fish-eye or tilt & shift type lens?

do you mean like this? (using my non-IS kit lens)

I have a Sony A200 and use my 50mm f1.8 lens for shots like this...

then I also have a 10-24mm lens for wide angle shots like this...

I use nothing more than my kit lens. Getting the right angle is more important than the lens.

agree 100% with danny, it is nice to have the fancy lenses but you need to "outgrow" the one's you already own. Be creative - get unusual angles and close ups like the one's you see above, to give a different view of what is essentially something that is "everywhere" and seen all of the time.
