I picked up a 23mm lens for my GFX system - that?s 18mm in the 35 world.

I?ve never used anything nearly so wide before and I?m daunted. Normally I 
live in the medium-telephoto world.

Suggestions about work that uses ultra wides? Thoughts about composition and 
handling most welcome. I do remember that keeping the lens level is 
essential.

Thanks!
