I've spent most of this summer experimenting with Canon's TS-E 90mm lens. It has been an interesting experience. After a whole lot of tilting and shifting, my respect for earlier generations of photographers has grown tremendously.
This photo of the Illinois River taken shortly after dawn several weeks ago is a throw-away, but it might serve to demonstrate how to "skim" the plane of the river's surface at a wider aperture and faster shutter speed than would have been possible with a normal lens. This opens doors for creative possibilities not available with normal lenses. This is old stuff and nothing new for most folks here, but it has been nothing less than a revelation for me.
