Creative Homework (week #5)

[kimi_boo]

Well Creative Students some may think this week is rather difficult. :o But I am hoping that we have a few takers. We will be working a tut from myjanee called Photo Composition. When you click on the tut the two photos are provided. Feel free to add extra clouds using brushes, are use a planet or other strange object instead of the moon. Or just add something extra.
Remember... make it your own. There is no right or wrong. :D
You will need to use a work around for the layer mask. You can create one using an adjustment layer are download Grant's tool for a free one.
This homework is consider Intermediate or Advanced.

I have to admit... I was kinda confused for a while. :eek: I think I finally worked it out. :o
I added some brushes...
fragile clouds, SS planets, the birds and tree are from Strange Angel.

ok, i REALLY have to get to bed...but i am going to post my attempts. They are not nearly as good as everyone elses, but i feel like it was a learning experience.
They are my pictures from hiking last summer in the White Mountains in New Hampshire in fog and rain....

I cut most of the moon away and put a halo around it, used a light eraser to take out the part "under" the cloud; merged the two layers; extended the height of the canvas; duplicated the image and turned it "upside down and inside out" (:D) and moved it to the bottom; darkened the bottom half and put a motion blue (oops) blur on it; then framed it :D
