Take a look at yesterdays post. Look really hard at the image and then come back to this one and compare the two. Notice a semblence? It's actually the same place, just photographed differently. One vertical and one horizontal. What I'm trying to say here is that always, always photograph a scene from every angle and in as many formats as you can. This includes vertical, horizontal, try a 1:1 ratio or in 16:9 ratio. You will be amazed, I'm sure of it.

E-P3 Focal Length: 25 mm Aperture: f/8.0 Exposure Time: 1/200 sec ISO: 200 • horizontal • Olympus • Spain • m4/3 • E-P3
02/15/12  Olympus E-PL1 and the 14-42 kit lens revisitedThis second image has a slightly different angle of view to it and has been processed differently. But only slightly. White balance is cooler and I brought the buoy into the foreground. 1865
E-PL1 Focal Length: 42 mm Aperture: f/8.0 Exposure Time: 1/500 sec ISO: 200 02/13/12  Getting close with the Panasonic 20 f1.7This si the last in this series though I do have a lot more of these. One thing to remember, if you don't see a good composition when taking in the larger picture, move in close and get thos shrter focal length lenses on the camera. Go for detail and I think you will have a great time. 2235
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/500 sec ISO: 200 02/12/12  Getting close with the panasonic 20 f1.7What I was missing here was a ladder to get higher. I'm sure there were a lot more images I could have made from a different angle. Some photographers never leave the house without a ladder. I think my wife would have something to say if I started that. 2677
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/250 sec ISO: 200 02/11/12  Getting close with the Panasonic 20 f1.7This abandoned boat had been on the beach for some time. When the tide was out, you could walk around the boat enabling you to work it. i took many images here and must have spend more than an hour just going around the boat. I also did it in both directions. It's amazing what you miss when only doing this in one direction. Just the same really a going for a walk, you tend to see what's in front and to the sides. How many people look behind them also. Totally different. I've not got into the habit or always looking behind me when I'm out and about. Oh yes, don't forget to look up and down aswell. 2177
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/125 sec ISO: 200 02/10/12  Getting close with the Panasonic 20 f1.7Not a lot to say about these images really, I just want to show what's possible with this lens. One thing I have noticed about the Olympus cameras though, I find it easier to manual focus ont he E-PL1 than on the E-P2 or E-P3. That is why I tend to use this camera more than others. 1923
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/125 sec ISO: 200 02/09/12  Getting close with the Panasonic 20 f1.7Sure I could have taken these images with a longer focal length but I just prefer to do it this was. i seem to be able to compose better when I'm close up. 1998
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/60 sec ISO: 200 02/08/12  Getting Close with the Panasonic 20 f1.7When it comes to m4/3 cameras, I much prefer to use Olympus over Panasonic. Why I don't know, I just prefer using them. Certainly I find using my legacy lenses easier on the Olympus cameras. I don't use the magnify function but I can tell with the Olympus cameras when focus has been achieved, the colour seems to drain from the image. However, I prefer the ergonomics on the Panasonic G1. All the buttons are there for the right function.
I like using this lens to get close and intimate to capture detail in subjects. The following images posted here will show this. Getting close means here getting close. Sometimes it's of course not possible and I'll use a longer focal length to get the shot I want, but where I can I do. 2334
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 1/125 sec ISO: 200 02/05/12  Olympus E-PL1 and the Panasonic 20 f1.7Coming back again to aquarium shooting with the above combination. I've got a couple more images I would like to show just to demonstrate how good this combination is.
Looking back on my posts for last few days, I seem to jumping back and forth with a few topics. Note to self: Get your topics sorted and stick to it. 1790
E-PL1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/1.7 Exposure Time: 1/1000 sec ISO: 400 02/04/12  Olympus E-PL1 and the 14-42 m4/3 Kit LensYet another one. Maybe my standards aren't up to some others I read on the forums. I can't find much wrong with this one (I'm not saying it's a masterpiece either). 1859
