The 40mm Lens Challenge

    The challenge was to use a 40mm lens!  A.K.A. the "Pancake" lens!  Mmm...sounds delicious!  :-)  It turns out not very many of us own this lens, but we sure were curious about what it could do!  Despite there not being too many submissions this time, I think what we did get is great for those of us who are shopping for new lenses!  Enjoy!
