Composite Image

This is a photograph of two aircraft that I placed into a landscape. I used a number of different techniques to perfect the composition. Firstly, when i selected the plane I selected the outside of it using the 'magic wand tool'. Then I right-clicked and chose 'select inverse' which changed the selection to what it originally hadn't selected which was the plane. Then I used the 'polygonal lasso tool' to add and remove parts to what was selected. Next I dragged it into the landscape and adjusted the size and rotated it a bit. Then selected the filter 'motion blur' and clicked on 4 and decided what direction I wanted the blur to be. Once I had done this I copied the plane and added it in again but smaller and in the corner. After I had adjusted that one as well I put a bit of lens blur on the entire image so that it made it more realistic.


This a photograph that I have composed using two differetn images. One is a rooftop and the other was of someone doing a backflip off of a bench. I selected the trail of his flip individually and moved them on the the rooftop. I rotated and resized the images to fit the scenario. I also used the filter motion blur to make it look more realistic.
This fits in with the project theme of changing lanscapes becasue I have taken a boring rooftop and changed it into a place of action.

Filters

Here is my original photograph before I have edited it.

On my first attemp at using the different filters I used 'glowing edges' so that my picture apperared to have more of a nightlife feel to it. I think i have achieved this.


I then tried the filters out on a different photograph. The original is below.



The edited image is below. I selected two different colours that were purple and grey. I then clicked on the 'stamp filter'.

I adjusted the 'light balance' to 32 and the 'smoothness' to 1.

Firstly I made my photograph negative so that it added a strange feel to the image. It turned out like this.

I then thought I could use this to create a warmer feel to it as well by changing the hue/saturation of the image. Below is the amount of hue/saturation I selected plus the image after it was edited.
