Yeh, I should have specified that my preference of a lens in the 35-55mm
focal length for landscapes is for scenes with significant distant objects.
A wider angle lens can be very useful in capturing dramatic vertical
landscapes of waterfalls, mountains, trees, etc. I'm beginning to
appreciate moderate telephotos for certain landscapes as well.

Depends all on the subject matter and "vision". For example, at the end of
this month I'm going to Upper Michigan to do some fall color/waterfall
photography. A 24mm lens is absolutely a requirement to get waterfall
shots without branches/trees intruding on the subject. This also allows
you to "enhance" the scale of the waterfalls a bit too.
