Description: Wood's "Fish-Eye View" photographed using the pail apparatus. Published as Figure 2 in the text. "A number of extremely interesting pictures were obtained with the device, which proved to be the equivalent of a lens having a working angle of 180°. One of these is reproduced in Pl.III.fig.2, and represents the appearance of a circle of men standing around the edge of a small pond, to a fish stationed at the centre. The appearance of the buildings, telegraph-poles, and small trees is also shown."
