At first I wanted to take a picture of the new building at Dixie State College, but for security reasons it's surrounded by a green fence, which affected the outcome of my photos. Therefore, I decided to take a picture of the Hazy building. The wide angle gave some type of proximity to the corner of the building as well as the statue new to it, but also giving great depth to the picture and the building as well.

When I was taking this picture, I set it up for a 22 mm lens and so my feet weren't in the frame. However, as soon as I pulled back to 10 mm, I saw my bright pink Converse shoes and I loved it. They give the photo that feeling of being so close to the shoes, but far away from the background or even the sign.

I got the same effect on this photo as the one with the shoes. The wide angle makes the picture looks as if the first bench was extremely close to me, and the second one very much further away, when in reality, they are both at about the same distance from me. I really enjoy all the colors in this photo.

This one I just loved and couldn't resist to post it.

In conclusion, I learned that shooting with a wide angle lens is going to give a different feeling to my photos. In reality, it all looks very much different to what a 10 mm lens can do. The objects close to the camera look extremely close, whereas the ones far away look extremely far. In my opinion, it even gives the picture a "cartoony" feeling or look. I really enjoyed taking pictures with a 10 mm. Sadly, it was very cloudy that day and I couldn't do the assignment on a different day so I had to work with the light I had. Hope you enjoy them!
