This photo is actually a photoshop exercise.  The background is from a trip to Kilarney Ontario Provincial Park. The park was one of the places the Group of Seven painted. The photo was taken on the first night I believe. The foreground picture of me was taken in my bathroom on my phone.

The challenge was to make two photos blend.  The sun on my forehead would never quite right, but I think I match the perspective and graininess of the foreground in the background.
