Stairway to Athabasca Falls

A0F3AAD3-1EB4-452D-970A-E19CAF9AFE44.jpeg

I waffled a bit about which photo to lead with today. Finally the black & white won the battle. I’m quite happy how it turned out. Tell me what you think? This is the stairway to Athabasca Falls, seemingly hewn out of the rock bed. It is such a cool stairway, and mostly busy with people using it, so I had to wait for the perfect opportunity to snap a couple of shots. Glad I got it done! Photos taken at Athabasca falls, Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada.

The steps hewn out of the rocks is such a mastery. I think I applaud the beauty and the shot is phenomenal. I think I'll agree with you that the white and black is beautiful..

I'm a fan of monochromatic photos too. I have to agree that the black and white gave heaviness and value to such a majestic scenery. You captured it well. 👏

I think the one you led with is awesome, but i am going with the colored version because you can see the distance a little better with the way the color contrasts. Plus, the rock tones and green spots make the eye's ascent to the focal point a bit more interesting. However, you could look at that B&W version for a very long time. I really like the framing. Cheers browski!

Good points. Off topic but, you are doing a bang up job with the community. I like the fact that double and triple platform dippers won't be curated anymore. I did post a bit on blurt sometime back, but then came to my senses and sold all my holdings. At this point, I'm truly all in with Hive, you might say I've bet the farm on it's success. I am a Hive Maxi. Mic drop.

Yes, i have been a HIVE maxi the whole time... but never had a problem with people diversifying their assets. However, with the scandals on Steem and the inability to adjust rewards via no downvote.. there is no sense in not being only on Hive. Thank for the appreciation and honestly, the other users haven't been getting money curated in a very long time. Just featured in the community posts. The only reason you don't get curated for money is because you aren't an 'underrewarded' user. But, i try to show your stuff off when i can. I favor the B&W version but think the color version would appeal more to the masses.... so that's the one in the upcoming HotShots! Spoiler alert! hahahha

Stunningly beautiful! And the stairs blend in well with the surroundings. Like @castleberry, I like the color version better.

Thanks for your opinion, maybe I should have led with the colour!

Nice, the b&w's are coo, but the colors are too coo.

A lovely staircase and it looks wonderful in the black and white... You could say it leads to a monastery somewhere in Tibet! :) ... 📷🔝
