Thank you all for your kind and wonderful comments.
The undershot of trees is not a composite, just looking up.
It was originally a color shot I took back in 2016 that I filtered to contrast the shapes of the different branches.
This was the 5th version of a figure drawing I did for this theme of winter leaving and the one that won out.

These pictures in this series were taken last Tuesday. At my hubby's work break I'll figure out how to get them off the server and up to this photostream with meta data and better than 72 dpi. This is wooden working puzzle that is a timer. It would run via rubber band if aligned but for the these shots I manually moved the larger gear down below that you can't see, subsequently moving the minute gear and the pendulum wheel at the top.
