[Leica] Teaching an old dog new tricks: learning to shoot ultra-wide

[cartersxrd at gmail.com (CartersXRd)]

I think we tend to see them as having more width, but I find it helpful to 
think of them having more foreground

they let you drop a background to less importance or include more background

clear as mud right?

i find the ultrawide?s ability to use depth for emphasis MUCH more important 
than it?s increased coverage (unless, of course, my back is against the wall)
