 Photographer’s Notes
I didn’t expect it to be but this was fun.

This was a simple idea, simply executed. First I shot a sunflower against a blue sky. Next I shot Seattle’s Space Needle against a blue sky. Line ‘em up and color match the skies and Bob’s your uncle.

If you look very closely, I left the tiniest artifact to show where the two photos abut each other. This was on purpose.

Hello from the critique club...

This is a nice shot. Or do I need to say two shots. I really do like this. As mentioned below there are some dust specs. But to be honest I probably would not have noticed them on my own. They are pretty minor. I can see the line slightly but as you pointed out, you left that intentionally. Also that doesn't bother me. The skyline is nice and the flower is nice. Good job. Happy shooting.

Good concept. You might have cloned out the dust specks in the sky to the right of the sunflower.

Great job, I really had to look for that line in the sky for the split as well! :)
