Delaware Skies
I took landscape photographs during a trip to look at a house on October 22, 2020 in Delaware County, New York. This gave me the perfect opportunity to replace the skies in using the new Photoshop sky replacement tool. It’s a lot faster than the old way. In the last three I reflected the sky in the water to make it more realistic.
Greenbrook
We have a key to this sanctuary in New Jersey. I love the Wild Turkeys there.
