Great shot, Khan!
Very cool picture!!! Not being familiar with that area, how difficult was it to have someone else take that photo of you?I posted this photo on a photography forum site and got a lot of great comments about making people's feet tingle, etc. This is DW and I on Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) above the Lysfjord in Norway.

This was taken on a bus tour of Denali National Park. These sheep looked they were posing for a National Geographic pictureTaken last week on a trip to Co. and Utah
Ron, I am a landscape guy and for me wider is better, so I would take the 16-35. Also, I think that for street shots, the 70-300 would be too long a lot of the time. If you want to get in closer, you can crop from the 24-70.Ok photo gurus,
I'm going to Key West for a week and need some advice on 2 lenses to bring. I take mostly landscape shots, but Key West could produce some interesting street scenes. I only want to bring 2 in order to be able to use a smaller backpack. Here's the 3 choices:
16-35mm
24-70mm
70-300mm
I see the 24-70 as a must. So I need to decide between the 16-35 and 70-300.
My personal solution is to carry a 16-35 on a full frame body and an 18-200 on an APS-C body. I do not want to lose time changing lenses or let dirt into the camera.

24-70 and 16-35. Some of my best street shots were taken with a 17-40 just hanging around my neck. Preset focus and snapped shots of people walking by.

If you must make a choice I'd pick the 16-35 for landscape shots. The 70-300 is going to be too long almost all the time for that and street photography.
You will, of course, run into scenes where you regret not bringing it.
