Same scene, different camera lens. What a difference!

I took these two photos from the exact same spot along U.S. 2 west of Browning, Montana on the Blackfeet Reservation. The top one was shot with a very wide angle lens. The one below it was taken with a long telephoto lens. Look at the difference! What this illustrates is how easily you can alter the appearance of a photo with your choice of camera lenses.

    So which version of this spot does the eye see in person?

    I should have taken a photo. But it was sort of be halfway between these two images. That's hard to imagine, I know.

    A 50 mm lens will give you what the human eye sees.
