You are closer and more intimate with a 28. Almost too close as focal length induced distortions to reality are much more noticeable. This is not as pronounced as it was at one time what with news photographers using the 20mm lens as their normal lenses these days. Rather than thinking about lenses as covering more or less, think about the changing relationship between the foreground and background.
