Black and white, the ultimate contrast. I didn't set out to make this. It was all about saving an otherwise unusable image. There was to much haze that day, so the foreground dominated this photograph. I turned up the red and pulled out the grey scale. After removing specks from the sky and sharpening, it looked like something Adams would have taken. That's not to say that I have taken an image that is close to a comparison to the great master, but we must strive toword something. How will I look at this image a year from now? Ten years from now? I hope I will look at it like I look at my grade school drawings my Mother saved.

Forgive me, what I meant was this explanation was profound, in depth. So are you, forward thinking, 'striving' towards something. Interesting, it gave me something to think about. I'm not SURE what I am doing!

I see. "Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well." Ben Franklin (1706-1790)...or over doing.
