Hear, Hear!!  Well said.  While the spice of a hyper or two could
enhance a series of slides from Mt. Ranier and other scenic treasures,
I would not want a steady diet of hypers.  I agree that normal stereo
base shots, if well composed, are great in places like this!

Now, just wait until Boris and Larry and the "leave your Realist home
when you go to the Grand Canyon" crowd get wind of these postings!
I feel a storm brewing!  <G>
