ABOUT THE PHOTO

I always carry a few clear glass filters with me for situations like this. Hold it in front of your lens and tilt it around until you get a reflection you like. Also prisms and diopters are fun to keep in your kit as well. This is in Alaska along the Parks Highway on the way to Fairbanks.

RULES & HOW TO PLAY

Each of the guest Photo Stars will be sharing a photo to their blog. For Metadata Monday we would like you to guess the focal length of the photo. We are using the original stated focal length regardless of the type of camera or sensor size

  1. The closest guess will win the prize!
  2. Only one guess per person, per post.
  3. No editing your guess - you have to commit!
  4. All metadata has been stripped from the pictures, so don’t bother looking for the EXIF!
  5. We are not required to tell you what kind of camera was used, or what time of day the photo was taken at, or whether filters were involved (this adds to the mystery and the challenge!)
  6. For this game you have 2 days to guess (till Wednesday at 6PM EST / 11PM UTC)
  7. If only one person gets the correct (or closest) answer they will win the full prize pool
  8. If multiple people guess correctly (tie for 1st): 60% to first person / 40% divided between the next 5 people

So you're saying it IS a crop sensor? ;)

70mm

I'm using my Photostar powers to back this one. 70mm will be closest to the actual focal length.
