“雲內有山 山中有雲 Mountains inside clouds, Clouds inside mountains” / 寧 Serenity / SML.20130320.7D.35728-SML.20130320.7D.35734-Pano.Rectilinear.50x37.1
Sometimes people asked me when I decide to process photographs in color vs black-and-white. It is easy. When things do not work as well in color, I develop them as black and white. Push as you will, but some photographs just won’t work as well in color.
This is one such example, the black and white version to follow. But here you see it is very foggy. You might say that it has a very blue cast—but it is not the cast. The natural laws of physics and the way air absorbs colors dictates that things in the far would appear bluish. The color information here is almost a distraction. But I am posting this here so you can compare after the fact.
Like I said, I am a nice guy. This is stitched together using seven 7D RAW captures mounted on a tripod at my living room window—a dangerous act with the camera exposed in the air, yes, but well worth it I think.
