August 19
Shocking, isn’t it? That I posted a color photograph, I mean.
This image and I had a bit of a battle. See, I wanted it to be black and white, because that’s what I am doing now. I mean, I even posted a picture of the Pacific Ocean in b&w: I am committed to it.
But, no: this image had its own ideas. It was somewhat insistent, in fact, of the correctness of color over b&w. I didn’t want to believe it. But eventually it wore me down. And so, here’s a color photograph. I hope you’re not too upset by it.
(Also: the photograph was right. It DID need to be in color. But I will deny that I admitted it.)

Shocked!
But I like it – that strip of yellow along the horizon must have been one of the more insistent parts of the photo.

I think I could have won if it had been ONLY that strip of yellow. But when it teamed up with the reflection on the big silo, I could see where things were headed. I said, “Well played.” and posted a color photograph.

Well, we all have to throw in the towel from time to time. At least its a nice strong image without the conversion.
