Mount Robson & Photography 101

____________________________________________________________________________________

Some Photographs...




LOOK


MUCH


BETTER


IN COLOR
THAN 


THEY 

 
DO

 
IN 

 
BLACK & WHITE






In British Colombia, Mount Robson is the highest peak 
in the Canadian Rockies.

Unless your name is Ansel Adams  or you understand 
the maxim, Black & White almost Uber Alles,  
shoot such natural wonders in color.

Doing so mean it is unneccesary to blot out 
the contrapuntal cloud blots
in the upper left corner. 

I would love to take credit for the top image
but it came from here.

Paul Edward Oliverio does take credit
for the last three letters of CarPeo
but the  r stands for the name
of the mountain.

  1. What do you mean by "contrapuntal?"

    1. Contrapuntal is an adjective form
      of the noun, counterpoint.

      The cloud blots are a visual counterpoint
      for the white snowspot in the middle of
      the photograph.
