Wideangle photography for Proximitycasting

Here is a link to a photography blog that belongs to a friend of mine: Scott Evers Photography BlogScottEversPhotography.blogspot.com Scott's post for today makes me really ready to try some wideangle proximitycast shots. All I can say is WOW! And, what wideangle lens should I get for a start?

ProximityCast allows a lot of room for artistic license. ProximityCast also appreciates the "plain Jane" shots taken with a just a cell phone. Anyone who registers is allowed to submit photos. ProximityCast.com is in Beta, so all is not perfect yet. But, with your help and feedback, ProximityCast aims to become the ultimate location based service application on the Internet worldwide.

Latitude and longitude is a bit strange to those who are not hard core geocaching enthusiast, but lat/long works anywhere and everywhere in the world regardless of street addressing systems which vary from country to country.

Paste a latitude and longitude coordinate pair into Google Maps and you are immediately and accurately taken to the location designated by the coordinates. You can't do that with street addresses. Sometimes street addresses work great, but many time they miss the mark by a long shot.

Welcome to the world of ProximityCast and proximitycasting! Please consider being a user and contributor if you're not already. It is only our users and contributors that can truly make this a great internet web application for our time!

Consider getting a ProximityCast buttion for your blog or website to help spread the word.
