Really nice photo art Glenn.

I do find Weymouth pretty wonderfully photogenic though -- one of my favorite locations in the area to do landscape photography.

Here's one of my favorites from there.

Thanks for the comments. What I was trying to say is that unlike a spot such as Yosemite, Weymouth's beauty is in the details, as your picture demonstrates. There's no one grand landscape that hits you over the head when you see it. So it takes a discerning eye (ability/experience/knowledge/etc) to find the image and express the feeling of the place.

I have to admit that the photo montage concept doesn't exactly appeal to me, but I appreciate your attempts to put your raw emotions into an image and I think you did that well here.
