i do a lot of panoramic landscapes and i find that i work nearer the ultrawide end of the range using my Sigma 15-30 or Pentax 24-90. nothing gives a sense of space like a really wide angle shot with lots of clouds and sky. sometimes, i will crop top and bottom to get just the wide shot. closing into only one part of spectacular scenery is one approach to landscapes. trying to fit it all in is another. i sometimes shoot 360 degree panoramas with my fisheye lens and make Quicktime VR movies of them. thes days, i find it easiest to use my digital camera for such images.
my web site is organized more by event than anything else, but you can find my style of landscape in many of the images presented there. http://www.bestweb.net/~hchong. unfortunately, most of the images originate from my Nikon digital camera and are not eligible for the PUG gallery. i'm still building up my film image collection now that i have started shooting slides again. that is all Pentax equipment except the Sigma 15-30 zoom and the Tamron 2X telextender.
