Welcome to "Make it Monday"!
Many of your assignments will ask you to comment within your peer responses on the "focal length".
What exactly is focal length? In short, the focal length is the
field of view or what is actually shown within the
frame. How much of the scene is the photographer choosing to
incorporate within his/her photograph? What type of lens is being used
to do so?
I have copy and pasted a YouTube link to a video by photographer and educator, Darren Cole. In this video, he explains what focal length is as well as what types of lenses produce certain effects. Please click on the link below to view his video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChDxNmBfdeI
Below is a video still from Cole's video. In
this image you can see the difference between an 18mm lens and a 300mm
lens:
 I would encourage all of you to subscribe to Cole's YouTube page as well!
