Diverging Skies    Ross Steensland

This photo is a composite blend of two night shots. The sky was taken during the 2nd night of the Milepost 97 fire on I5 just South of Riddle.  The foreground is the shoreline of Galesville Reservoir.  I light painted all of the cracked mud as well as the distant snags.
The foreground and sky both have multiple exposures blended to produce even lighting and depth of field.
