Not sure if I should admit to this, let alone apologise for it, but this is a composite of 2 shots 10mins apart. A bank of cloud on the horizon meant that the setting sun first lit the clouds, and then shortly after, lit the heather, but not the two at once. I'm not a huge fan of creating a scence from separate elements, but as it was the same composition on the same shoot,. I'm going to call this Time Blending, in the same way that you might Focus Stack or Blend exposures. If you've read this far, what's your opinon of the approach? Dishonest? Not an issue? It's all art so who cares?
