Excercise 7:Focal Lengths

My aim was to find a scene  that had a central area of interest but at the same time had quite an open view .Focusing on the same point throughout. I chose the building at the top of the steps as a focus point and then took a series of images with the camera tripod mounted with my zoom lens using its full focal range of 18-200mm 

From the results i concluded that although the cameras position was identical for each image and the central area in each image mirrored that of the other images be it on a varied size,  the feeling of distance in image 1 @18mm quite surprising. At the other end of the scale the final image @ 200mm gives the feeling of being virtually within the subject.

My personal favourite was the image taken @ 170mm giving an impression that the building was sitting at the top of the steps and appears quite dominating within the frame.
