Hi David, Agreed ... Interestingly I've just been on a vacation that took in Monument Valley and Grand Canyon ... taking pictures (flat images) cannot do justice to the 3D scenes.
The human observer is dynamic - the movements of observer's body and head exploit the parallax to fill in the depth of field detail that is not present in any static view. Experience (observation) is dynamic - the mental faculties (avoiding the word reason for the sake of argument) are sense-making, filling in the gaps.
