Cyanocitta cristata

A long lens allows the photographer to make an object that is far away fill the entire frame. Long focal length lenses appear to compress perspective (in fact this is a function of the relative position of the camera to the subject rather than a function of the lens), and have a very small depth of field compared to short focal lengths and so must be focused with precision.
