Task 4: Fantasy Landscape

Last week we went out and photographed a few different landscapes from a distance and this week we merged them together through photoshop.
Firstly I opened one photo into photoshop and used the magic wand tool across the top of the photo. I carefully went around the top of the photo with it and then used quick mask mode to erase unwanted areas. I then used the eraser to erase the top of the photo. I deselected the photo and made the  background into a layer. Then I pasted the other photo I wanted in the background into the original photo, moved it underneath the layer and then moved the other photo around until it fit properly

These are 3 photos from one of his albums called High Summer. These are my 3 favourites, I love how the water looks in these images and how they look like paintings.
