It is not anything more than a single photo, no merge, no PS. It's all about where you position yourself, the lens and camera settings. My Nikkor 18-200mm lens mounted on my D500 set at f/11, 82mm, 1/50 sec, ISO 100, on a tripod. My position was close to 200 yards from the barn resulting in a compression that makes the Grand Teton peak bigger than life. No post processing manipulation.

I've been off line for a while so if it was posted here as a color photo I missed it. This is indeed a frequently photographed barn. One of the Moulton Barns in the Grand Teton National Park. More often than not it is seen in color and quite often with the barn as the main subject. I chose to make the majestic Tetons the main subject and the barn secondary. It was a cloudy day and with the snow on the mountain I thought black and white would bring out the contrast.

If you ever use the built-in flash keep in mind the D500 has no built-in flash and for that reason there is no commander mode on the 500. Keep the 7100 and stay with the DX format and get the D500. 10 fps with a deep buffer on the 500 really is nice for action but I find that mine works well for "normal" photography. I have a D7100 and a D500, just recently purchased, and they make a nice combination. Also, you can use FX lenses on a DX frame. My 2 cents.

Thanks for taking a look and Yes, the water was that calm. I used a tripod with a shutter speed of 1/30 of a sec., a 16mm 2.0 lens on a Nikon d500 at ISO 100.

Thank you I appreciate the comments. Not everyone's favorite subject but insects have so much unseen color and detail it's fun to capture and share.
