The view of my phone camera is limited to a small “range” in front of it. A lens, can widen this view slightly.
But wider doesn’t means better, at least not all the time. A wider view is really good for a group photo of a large group, however when taken for a smaller group or say a single item, the item face some degree of distortion… (at least with this lens)
So, does a wider view always means better? Not necessary. To me, having more information (say either from a wider view or other ways) can be a burden depending on your ability to handle and digest them.
If you, use these new information to fuel and support your older views instead of updating them and/or you actually hates them or foster hatred… then its rather you don’t possess them in the first place.

Thanks, glad you like it!! 🙂
We are always learning new things,,,,,,,,,,
Yes, we should always learn new things …
and its up to use to process it 🙂
when I was a kid, I wanted to know everything. then I learned some things I can’t unlearn…
now I am a sad and wiser man, one who sets boundaries
Haha … when I was a kid I thought I would automatically know everything when I grew up :p
but ironically, it seems like I just keep knowing lesser things as I grow up :’)
But well, sometimes, like you say, wise people set boundaries 🙂
some things I wasn’t meant to know
Funny thing is people tend to seek information they cannot handle and then get unhappy or angry about them … 😐
But then, it’s all over now …
it seems folks today are always acting against their best interest. so much for common sense…
I guess they evolves, so common aren’t that common too 😕
I think “don’t touch fire” is pretty timeless
Each lens has certain characteristics. We can not use them for everything.
I agree … I’ve often forget to remove or change my lens and get really bad photos …
but I guess its the same when we probe and try to know about information where we can really do without … especially when they make us unhappy or umcomfortable
Depends on what you are photographing. A wide view is great with landscapes and sunsets.
Yes, I agree … there’ll be a situation for the wide lens as well as any other lens. Just that we need to use the correct len for the correct things, same as how we deal with information… just my thought.
Great to know wider explanation, I think it have got different meaning depending upon the situation.
Thank you Witty, always so supportive.
Glad you like this post 🙂
