I know what you are talking about. I have always used wide angles for getting in close to my subject. All my landscapes shot with wide angles either look too busy or contrived.
I agree that Nana does do an amazing job with a 47mm.
Re: Large Format Landscapes
Nana - There really are no words strong enough to quite describe the consistant flow of truly breathtaking work from you... You're shots with the 47XL are magnificent, so engrossing. I'd love to walk through an exhibition of your images printed large...

Nana,
Like the others, I enjoy all of your images. This one particularly appeals to me. It is not as classically beautiful as your other images, but there is just something about it. The way the clouds echo the rocks, and the gap in the clouds echos the gap in the rocks. The center rock somewhat precarious on the edge, and it's striking shadow, and the convergence of foreground lines to the rock. Good work.
