Exercise 2.1 The distorting lens

The subject of my photo was the court house in Omagh, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. This was the target of the Omagh bomb and there was a warning to the police who evacuated the area but the driver of the vehicle had panicked and left it at the other end of the town where the evacuated people went so it exploded amongst a crowd of people and 28 died.

Initially a car blocked my view of the court house but as I zoom in gradually it disappears. The first photo's focal length is 18mm and the final one's is 88mm. My camera was a Pentax K-30 and my zoom lens was a 18-135mm DA weather resistant one.
