I've long felt more comfortable shooting with longer-ish lenses, 40mm and upwards and have been doing so for all the time I've been taking pictures.
It's 85mm or more when I need to blow out but sort of keep in a the background and 40mm/ 50mm when I need capture a bit more it's a focal length that seems so natural to compose and picture the scene in your head, as you pretty much get you are looking at.
Last year, just because I felt I needed something wider for interiors (some of the shots I need are in quite small spaces and even 35mm doesn't cut it), I got myself a Sigma 24 1.4, but what surprised me is just how versatile 24mm is, and to be honest, I've absolutely fallen in love with it. It has this quality, it captures this depth that I suppose shooting with longer lenses I hadn't appreciated before.
It's at the point where if I could only have one focal length of lens, it would be a really struggle to pick between 24mm and 40mm.
What lens/focal length did you unexpectedly fall in love with?
