focal distance

I was in a long-distance relationship at the time with my high-school boyfriend.

Off went the officers again, some distance to the front, and then back again to their men, and got them on a little further.

Distance, the uncertain light, and imagination, magnified it to a high wall; high as the wall of China.

A lateen sail was visible in the direction of Cat Island, and others to the south seemed almost motionless in the far distance.

And the others, not knowing that he had that day repented, sat at their distance and tried to form no conclusion.

We see the whole land, even if but at a distance, instead of being limited merely to the spot where our foot treads.
