Great Lakes region, USA. May 2026.

Some recent posts here inspired me to try my hand at a composite photo. After much trial and error I kinda figured out how to do this in GIMP and I'm really happy how this turned out. Thank you all for the inspiration. I plan to make many more like this.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I don't really know GIMP all that well. I barely know Darktable.
