August - "Landscape with a standard lens"
How's it look with one eye shut?
landscape=countryside=seascape=urban=industrial
We are programmed through the propaganda of popular belief that landscapes should be shot either wideangle with dramatic foreground or telephoto as a Tuscan house appears across the misty valley. Get a sense of reality and shoot this month's theme with a lens standard for your system.
135 -------------------- between 40-50mm
medium formats ----- between 80-90mm
5x4 -------------------- between 150-180mm
APS-C sensor -------- between 28-35mm
and so on.
