Photo Compositing
The images below are the result of a 10-plus-year relationship with Stephen Simpson, a Pennsylvania-based photographer. Each project is a pre-determined composite, sometimes consisting of several images brought together to set a mood, capture a moment or commemorate an event.
These images, and dozens of others, are available as limited-edition lithographs from Stephen’s gallery, or can be purchased through his website. Please visit www.TakeAVirtualHike.com for more information.
