<p>Thanks Bill - the "tilt" is just exaggerated vertical perspective from the FD20mm...I'm sure your 17mm would be even more dramatic if pointed upwards.</p>

<p>Whoops, sorry, the lens for both of the above should have read FD20mm/f2.8 SSC...!</p>

<p>The above shot is South Head lighthouse; the below is a familiar bridge from an unfamiliar angle:</p><div></div>

<p>Great shots so far, everyone!<br> I didn't finished a film last month, so have dug up a couple of shots from 11 years ago in Sydney:</p> <div></div>

<p>It captures the moment, Charles! (And no matter how hard we sometimes try to be "arty", it is these kind of shots that are really meaningful for the people involved and most appreciated...) I agree that 28mm is a great focal length for party events like this; the angle of view and deep depth of field means its really quick to work with, and makes sure you don't miss important moments like these.</p>

<p>Nice one Bill - looks very cold, I hope he/she can find his/her way home OK.</p>

<p>Looking forward to your continuing stewardship of this thread through 2017, Alex.<br> Apologies that as a rather stingy film shooter, I am lagging a bit behind the seasons; two Autumn shots follow:</p><div></div>

<p>Amazing shot, Bill - shows off the 17mm angle-of-view very nicely.<br> Apparently snakes see the world in infrared, but probably can't enjoy a lot of landscape vistas from 1 inch above ground level..!</p>
