I brought 3 lenses with me to Iran: 16mm, 23mm and 56mm. The 23mm was constantly on my camera, followed by the 16mm. However, I barely took out the 56mm.
I noticed this while I was in Prague. So I started to make an effort to bring it out.
However, for future travel (and especially if I return to Iran), I will probably leave the 56mm at home. The streets are too narrow and there's too many people to get a clear shot with the 56mm.
