I think I am within the rule book this time...but don't take my word for it!
This was taken in a series when I was off doing my Karen Silkwood/Erin Brokovitch impersonation.
The focal length using the smaller sensor was 34 and no crop done in pp.
Can I stay in the game now? :)

I was in Sydney last week and had to smile about they way Oprah was received by the press. Aside from the 'O' on harbour bridge, on sunday there was a plane making smoke 'O's in the sky!
I had walked around the building and near the front on the side where the roof comes down almost to the ground there are some very interesting angles. Glad you like it :) -

Maybe not a prizewinner but this view nicely explains why I normally use zooms.
But I did manage this one shot at the prescribed lens length. -

Deadline is passed. Would any of you Mods like to add a poll or make a decision?

Oh, Rats! I've been taking 35mm (well, they kept winding up 34 or 39mm) photos for this and, then, forgot to post one! :rolleyes: I just wanted to try it with some snow..... :( (except with puppy dog eyes, too)

Sounds good to me Rob.
Can we conclude that few of our members have prime lenses?

34mm with Canon 450D (cropped sensor). The image is better if you click on it and view it in the lightbox with the black frame.
Thank you, also, for the challenge to focus/think outside the box a little! I wanted to get one of the mill, in town, but am still waiting for snow AND blue sky at the same time. -

Just wondering what the outcome of this challenge was?

I don't think there's an end point to this challenge. The opportunity exists for us to keep posting to this thread.
As you can see by the absence of anything from me, so far I have failed miserably! -
