Devil's Kitchen Sunrise at 105mm |
There is no quicker way to change a picture then to change the focal length. If you have a zoom lens, simply twisting it back and forth can remarkably bring distant objects closer. Twisting the opposite direction, a very wide angle can be obtained in which the whole universe seems to come into the lens.
I thought it might be interesting and educational to show 3 different views of the Devils Kitchen, but a remote section of Canyonlands Needles District. I traveled in there by car without any weight restrictions. I brought my 300 mm lens and several other heavy photographic tools. The first shot was taken at a focal length of 105 mm. This is actually zoomed in quite a bit. It helps bring the flowers and the spire is a little bit closer together in the photograph. Nevertheless, the flowers are very small.

Devil's Kitchen Spires at 600mm |
Lastly, I brought out my heavy lens and attached a 2x tele-converter to it. This makes a focal length of 600 mm. With this heavy, long lens the spires filled the whole frame. You can see what this does to the picture: focus on one thing. Nothing else fits into the photo.
