Life is Beautiful. In addition to being the title of a movie, it is a truth like an iceberg, if you look at it only superficially, it may seem much less than it is. And to contemplate that beauty you have your eyes and your camera. As you are passionate about photography (if you would not be reading this blog), it is very likely that a high percentage of your glimpses of life are through the viewfinder of your camera. But of course, your camera is not just your camera, it also has a lens that will decisively influence the type of photography you are going to get. Now, you decide what color or angles you want to contemplate life through your camera. We already told you what life was like in 50 mm , or 35 mm . Today I will tell you, rather, I will show you, how life can be seen through a wide angle. If you get lost in this sentence, I will tell you that we are talking about focal distances, an essential chapter if you want to advance in the world of photography. If on the contrary you know well what I am talking about, it will not be necessary for me to tell you that to speak of a wide angle is to speak of a focal distance between 10-25 mm or if we express ourselves in terms of viewing angle, it means that it covers (such as his own name sings) an angle greater than normal targets, between 60º and 110º. There are also the super wide angle, known as fisheye , which I will also include in this sample. Before continuing, I will repeat once again that it is not the team that takes the photos, you take them. The team, in this case the wide-angle and super-wide-angle lenses, offer you a range of possibilities, in your hand is to give shape and color to those possibilities and show the beauty of life. Do you dare to know these possibilities? Well, sit back and hold on to curves ...
1. TRADITIONAL LANDSCAPES ...
These types of lenses are ideal when photographing a landscape. Why? Because they cover a greater part of the scene, it allows you to include elements that with other focal distances would be outside the landscape.TWO. …. AND DIFFERENT LANDSCAPES
Surprise Yes, you, you have that power. You can surprise with your photography and achieve different landscapes . These goals will be a great ally in your crusade3. "IMPOSSIBLE" SCENES
When you think it is impossible to "put" in that box (your camera) an immense stage, as extensive as it is beautiful, comes the wide angle and extends your hand: «hey, you can do it with me!4. NIGHT LANDSCAPES
And of course, night landscapes, a beauty full of magic that wide-angle lenses do not resist capturing.5. URBAN LANDSCAPES
The landscapes are not only of nature and there are cities so extensive that they need a lot of angle to be captured6. INTERIORS
As much as you shrink in a corner and throw yourself on the ground, as you don't have a wide angle installed in your camera, forget about capturing the entire interior of a building, room or monument, that's what it is… Now, look at the result of looking with a wide angle lens, it's spectacular, right?7. HEART ATTACK STAIRS
For those who love stairs, here are two wonderful ones. A wide angle, in addition to covering most of the scene and exaggerating the perspective, increases the depth, ideal for photos like these.8. PORTRAITS
Ok, it's not the most recommended type of foreground lens, is it? If you are looking for a different portrait , or one in which the environment is as important as the subject ... Then yes, look at these examples!
