Speaking of cliches, here is my faux Ansel Adams cliche shot from Yosemite's "Tunnel View."  Me and a bazillion other landscape dudes and dudettes.

Every one has one of these, but this one is mine so I love it.

Nikon D800, 55mm on my 24-70 Nikkor lens, Really Right Stuff tripod, ISO 100, f11.0, 1/45th.
