Although the two look completely different, with 3 images involved, they were all captured withing a few yards of each other on different days. The background was used for the setting sun capture and then the Colorado River shot (taken in a close by area) was added to the foreground. The heron was photographed at the same location (Colorado River) and added to this composition. An old software (Corel's Photo Impact) was used for most of this work.
