Starting around 85mm and up to 200mm
I thought I had a lot of them, but it seems I usually use an 85mm tilt-shift lens or a 70-200mm for longer perspectives...

Craig, gorgeous series of images you’ve shared—I especially favor ”Sundown” and “Blanketed Dunes.” The composition of “Edge of Earth” is particularly nice as well as a beautiful image.

John, another great intro image. If only my graphic design skills were anywhere near yours...

From the top of Lembert Dome in Yosemite National Park:

Michael, thank you for the kind compliment. A beautiful series of images, the White Mountains landscape is very well captured with good color—my favorite. The Hot Creek landscape benefits with the telephoto lens use—well seen.

Lastly Highland Scotland@400mm but cropped a lot so equivalent of 1500mm. This is the same location as the first image and you may notice these trees in the background although they are taken 1 yr apart. Ken

Alan, beautiful landscapes—nice lens! The coastal images are particularly good subjects for telephoto lens use. The Grinnel Glacier Falls image is my favorite!

Ken, I love your images—each one is well seen and captured. My favorites are the second and fifth images—gorgeous!

Dan, beautiful images all! Can’t choose a favorite! Your final image is a wonderful abstract––love it! The "view from Turtle Back Dome" has good composition and color and the "Oak in Summer, Metcalf Rd" makes a very, very nice B&W––good composition here as well. The "From the road to Schulmann grove, looking west" has very interesting composition (good use of the telephoto lens) and a nice pastel coloring.
