I find the 28 a bit too wide for such use. I use the 28 where I need to emphasize foreground space in scenic or architectural shots. And many times I find only a 50 will do. These three focal lengths are my standards; in fact I don't now own a lens longer than the 50.. If I need a closer effect, I use the 50 and my feet.
