I'm not entire sure whether this photo complies with the selection criterion 'worth showing other photographers'. The only thing that's going on is a (rather muted) contrast of orange and blue.
However, it's my first attempt at 'long-lens landscape', shot with a 300mm f/4 lens. On a DX body, it's very, very narrow. It turn out, in fact, that 300mm is more of a 'special effect' lens.
It's nothing like how humans see things. In fact, what will fill the frame in 300mm is too small in unaided vision, that it will usually not even attract our attention in the first place. I have to learn how to see all over again.
For reference, I'm using two fingers' width at my arms length, as the longer axis.
