Another gorgeous work, Monty. Was the reflected image part of the original photo, or did you manipulate the original to create the reflection? I love shadows and silhouettes.

The colored section is a composite and manipulation of a couple photos and then I mirrored that to create the reflection. Happy that you like it! Yay!!

I wasn’t even thinking that you might have used several photos. It must be a lot of fun, and really satisfying, to play around until you get the effect you want.

It’s totally fun. I often discover what I want through the process of just playing around.
