Getting comfortable with 35mm focal length was not as difficult as going to 28mm; for everyday journaling styled photography. As a landscape and fine-art photographer, I am no stranger to wide focal lengths but this is not my home turf. It could be a phase but as long as I am making photographs in this genre had to find a way around and beyond the fifty.

I‘d like to think the “aha moment” for the beginning of my 28mm journey to be this photograph of a beautiful Ford F-150 I took few months back. The lighting was perfect - late afternoon sun and I could get real close with the subject. I saw what the 28mm lens on my X100VI could render and I recall at that very moment, even before firing the shutter, I knew that I’d be a lot more comfortable with this focal length in the future.
