Experimenting with composite images
Just looking for a little outside opinion on this one. Does it look too fake? Are my photoshop skills way off? Just whatever you think please. Ill be sure to return the favor.

A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

Interesting! I like the look of the water.
Thank you!!
Overall it doesn't look fake, but I do see a "dividing line" of some sort down the middle of the water that looks like it might be an artifact of the composite? I can't quite tell though.
Other than that, I don't see any obvious evidence of a composite or "fake" photo.
Are you talking about that tan looking thing? That looks like it almost runs all of the way to that rock?
Hello Jacob
Lovely picture, I really like the style.
I think it's well balanced. Bright on one side and dark on the other hand, it helps to create a good visual weight.
If I had to put a finger on anything, it's probably the shade is in the foreground of the picture, it really takes some of my attention. But all in all, good picture.
Thank you so much for the comment!!!
Hey it doesnt look like fake at all (for me) But quite complicated to understand the composition ^^ but color, tone, luminosity are goods.
