I agree with Jeff in principle, but here are some examples of shots at f22:

and I think also these:

I used that stop because I wanted a slower shutter speed, but I
wouldn't be afraid to use the stop in the future. However, I
naturally tend towards f8 or f11 in landscape and only go to f16 or
f22 when I need the telephoto end of a lens like the 14-54 or a slower
speed.
