A wide angle lens will help you capture impressive landscape photos with your camera. It provides some very interesting and humorous photos of animals and people. If you move in close, the lens will capture a great deal of detail but will also distort your picture. When you change the angle from which you shoot, you can take pictures similar to the mirrored images of people in carnival fun houses. These humorous photos provide shots of people with huge heads and long skinny bodies or gigantic feet with a stretched out body. Kids will love them! When your friends see these pictures they will be laughing with you. For more information on using a wide angle lens, visit http://www.photosoutside.com/2009/07/12/using-a-wide-angle-lens.html.
