How about "Less than Twenty" ?
Meaning take photos with a nice wide angle of 20mm or less.

Just a thought. Feel free to post other ideas in this thread.

"Less than Twenty" is a great idea Inga. I love wide shots, so this is right up my alley.

I would like it though that participants take shots especially for the challenge rather than dredging through the archives and posting older images. During the April Challenge I saw images posted that were taken in 2005 and 2006. What kind of challenge is that?
Participants should also comment on at least some of the images of their fellow participants.

It would let me out. My little camera only goes down to 27mm. :(

I think it is a great idea. I will certainly join you.
I'll be away from May 16th until May 25th (CuraƧao; not bad at all. :D ). But I will keep on shooting and upload after.

I agree. Although I don't mind an image that is a little older, incidentally. This is supposed to be a PaD challenge.
Participants should also comment on at least some of the images of their fellow participants.

An old discussion, but so true. I totally agree!!!!

It would let me out. My little camera only goes down to 27mm.

The exif of the picture you've uploaded today says: 9,8 mm, so you're definitely in.

But perhaps for those with less wide angle lenses: as wide as possible?

Yes, I think I'll give it a go. I have a 10-20mm lens that I don't use
near as often as I should.
Agree images shouldn't be too old. Although from time to time it's not always
possible to get a new shot, at least within t he past few months.

Is some clarification required? A 20mm lens ranges from wide angle on a full frame dslr to telephoto on a compact. Some may feel excluded.

Good point. How about just going as wide as you can.
For some that will be about 10mm and for others it may be 24mm or more depending upon the camera and or lens.

That way everyone can participate. ;-)

We can call it "Through Wide Eyes"
That way it just doesn't matter how wide you can go.

I'm looking forward to seeing my world and yours through wide eyes (lens).
