Canyon Country ~ Lower Yellowstone Falls
Black and white or color? Both photos are from
Artist Point (see map) at slightly different angles. I used my old
Pentax Spotmatic with a 105mm fixed lens for the black and white
picture. The color shot came from a Pentax 67 medium format camera
with a 90mm lens, hence the slightly more distant view. Lower Yellowstone
Falls is in one of the most dramatic settings of any falls I've
seen. The color version reveals the orange to brown canyon walls,
while the black and white one shows the mist at the base of the
falls much better. It also highlights the contours of the canyon
walls. The black and white version is a scanned print from a 35mm
negative. The color one is a scanned 6x7cm (medium format) slide.
