Impressive Dynamic Colors (Superficial/Artificial) vs Washed Out Faded Colors (Originality/Natural)

Well, that still gives me nothing to go off. You may simply suck a photog. I doubt that, but again, sans any metric, we may be seeing eye to eye. I am getting the distinct impression tho', that you simply don't fancy B&W, so you, for the most part, dismiss the entire  genre out of hand, as you seem to do with landscape.

OTH, given your math, you may prefer B&W 10 times as much a landscape.

I think your reference to music is quite apt, while I may not have an affinity fora certain genre (ie. death metal), I find I can still appreciate it, given a very talented  artist. Perhaps that's where we differ.

There is simply too much beauty in the world to photograph it all, but I'm trying.
