Week 3: Photoshop Assignment – Val Abbene

Here is my final Photoshop image:

I wanted to combine 3 photos from my time here in Shanghai: one that was taken of me by a friend in the Pusan lounge and two from my day trip to Zhujiajiao.  I used the magnetic lasso tool to outline myself and then inverted the masked layer to edit the photo of a temple reflected on water onto my shirt. Then I overlayed another photo of koi fish swimming in a lake on top of the original image to create the effect that they were floating around me. I then used the eraser tool to feather out the edges of the koi fish photo since it was too difficult to completely mask the water out of the photo.
