Experimental Nature Photo

The conditions for my intended purpose this day did not materialize as planned. The fall colors had not yet reached their peak and it was fairly windy as well. I decided to experiment with images from a different composition to try a blending technique. So. I took two different exposures, one for the foreground trees, and one for the water. I then replaced the sky for something slightly more favorable, and hand blended the water into the scene. Had a great time all the way around. Now I will have to use these new skills on some images where everything magically works out as I intended! 😂 Thanks for reading all the way through, you rock! 💪🙏👍
