Hmm, looks like I need to get out and do more - I did a bunch of Landscape in Portrait last month as my own assignment!

Hey thanks for your nice comments raiven and Bambi. Not quite sure what a Keener is ! - jimmy

That would be one who's keen. Might be archaic, or perhaps American.

Here is my attempt: A scene in a open-air-museum with an old fishing boat.

Casil and I attended a lecture by Darwin Wigget today who more or less inspired this month's theme. It was a very informative lecture, about the use of lenses, how the different focal lengths affect the outcome and depth of field and all that good stuff. He also lectured on how to use your lenses to portray or accentuate elements of your photo, etc. Ha! Then he tells us he uses mostly Perspective Control lenses for his landscapes and also uses the shift function to create the squares and long portrait oriented photos that are stitched together later in post. Quite interesting to know how they are done. Something to aspire to! Love his long exposure landscapes as well.
