At first glance, I really thought that this Mirror Lake is a painting made by a famous painter. I kinda remember Vincent Van Gogh Starry Starry Night. I'm really amazed that a photo can turn into something like this in such a way that photography and art fused so well. I also think that what you did seems like a combination of fact and fantasy.

This is an amazing shot! Like really amazing!! You, Hive account@brandongarrett, as well is super amazing. You didn't go the normal way. You think of this Mirror Lake intricately and carefully. Like you are still looking for a small way just to come up with this kind of shot. The patience and creativity upon doing a long exposure shot (correct me if I'm wrong with my terminology) is superb and amazing. Hah! How many times did I say amazing?

Three thumbs up for your Mirror Lake!!
