I guess I'm the only one in the world who can't stand most National
Geographic photographs. I don't want to see the world in saturated color
through a distorted wide angle lens.

When I first moved to the west from the midwest I was amazed how good things
looked out here through a 50mm lens. I think that's one of the definitions
of paradise. If it looks good through 50mm, then it may be paradise!

NG goes to paradise and then distorts it. One day my house will sink because
of its collection of bad NG photographs. Sigh.
