Tips for writing your own view captions

• A view caption should react to the scene rather than describe it, because the photo already shows the mountains. "Worth the climb" says more than "beautiful mountains and blue sky".
• Say how you got there. The climb, the detour, the early alarm, or the window seat gives the caption a story the picture can't.
• One exclamation mark maximum. The scale of a view reads better in calm words than in excitement.
