One of the best ways to use wide-angle lenses is through landscape and architectural photography. It allows you to capture so much more of the environment than with a normal lens, and it's perfect for capturing large objects in an interesting way. When using wide-angle lenses, it's important to pay attention to the background; use the foreground object to guide your viewer through the photo so they're not distracted by a cluttered environment. For this photo contest, we invited you to share your best wide-angle shots with chances to win a Portable Projector and more in the process. Congratulations to the following finalists:
