You're weird :-).


I like to record things as they are.

Seriously, using filters to control B&W tonal rendering is *extremely*
common among people doing B&W landscape photography, and other kinds for
that matter. Ansel Adams was famous for pushing the skies to really
dramatic low levels with a red filter.


They were not shooting things as they are.


News flash: Things are not black and white!
