Weekly Challenge 54: Wide Angle

Do you have a wide-angle lens? Join this week’s challenge.

Every week I will propose a new challenge, it is a topic that you will have to capture in a photo and upload it to the Facebook page of the blog by putting in the description the keyword that I will indicate for each topic. from portraits to macro photography, landscapes, black-and-white photography, or babies. The themes will be offered on Saturday, so you have the whole weekend to work. You’ll have one week to upload your photo (one photo per participant), until Friday of the following week. Friday or Saturday I will update the article with the photo that most captivated me and propose a new theme, and so on?

  • This week Iaio told us about the focal length of a lens and the different ranges that exist and the type of photography for which they were used.
  • This week I would like to focus the challenge on a particular type of lens: the wide angle.
  • A lens that ranges from 8 or 10 mm to about 25 mm.
  • And that considerably influences the optical result we obtain in a photo.
  • Ideally.
  • These types of lenses are ideal for landscapes.
  • Sky.
  • Nature.
  • Etc.
  • But with a little care they could also be used in portraits.
  • Pets.
  • Etc.

This week’s theme is completely free. The key is to use a wide-angle lens at a reasonably short focal length.

As usual, to participate in this week’s challenge, upload your photo to the Facebook wall of the photographer’s blog: In the description of the photo, mention the keyword? GranAngular Challenge? Followed by a title of your choice.

For those who are not from Facebook, I have enabled the participation of new social networks.

Good picture

If you are still not sure about buying this wide angle lens, the choice I offer you this time will convince you eventually, but will you be convinced? You see different situations that you can take advantage of thanks to this type of lens.

This week I’ll take “Warsaw”, by J. Ezquerro. A wide, symmetrical and almost bicolor composition that inevitably guides the viewer’s gaze towards the main subject. I love the contrast in size between the smallness of the subject and the size of the natural elements around it.

A magnificent photo. Congratulations to the photographer and everyone who took part in the challenge.
