Artist Point 2, Yellowstone

This one is 1/160 vs the 13s of the previous one. The water is less blue in this, and I think it blends better, but I still think the edges of the water appear to be laid in. Maybe it is the dark lines at the edges of the river, which I assume are undercut erosion.

yellowstone, a bit faster.

My image of Artist’s Point is offered as a possible solution to Evan’s question about his image … about why the water appears laid onto the photo.

One of the things about this shot that intrigues me (because I don’t understand WHY it is that way) is how the water almost appears ‘laid in’ on top of the terrain, like it’s a composite shot.
