Pikes Peak sunset. Nikon D3s, 600mm f/4.0 AFS VR Nikkor. This image illustrates a couple of principles. First, any lens can be a landscape lens! Second, this is a good situation to try spot metering.  Matrix metering would try to preserve shadow details, which really are not important to the shot. Lastly, this is a good example of creative cropping (pano crop). The sky above the mountain was otherwise devoid of clouds, and did not lend much to the shot. Cropping emphasizes the subject.
