Dan, I have some problems with your description/ definition of the "wideangle look". If a picture is small - do you call it "wideangle look (of the observer)", when he/she sees i.e. parts of the wall, or because the in-objects are in size below "naturalness" ? If a picture is large, and the observer cannot move far enough to see the total picture (no matter of the object size) - do you call this "wideangle look" also ?
