Dale - I really like this one, it seems to have something of the style of an old grand master painting about it. But what I really, really like, is that even though you tell us how you processed it by combining two images together (blended or overlayed with masks I assume), it doesn't actually looked processed at all and that for me is one of the hardest tricks to pull off these days, because we have so many tools and techniques and plugins etc available to us, that we are all too often tempted to push those sliders just that little bit too far. So to make an image that actually looks like a simple but well taken photograph, rather than an image obscured below a layer of visible processing, has become so hard for us to do and do well, but you have managed to do so here.
Bravo!
