Let's Make a Collage Contest - Round 138 | Dreaming

Dreaming

Hello friends, here is my participation in the Let's Make a Collage Contest - Round 138

Creative Process

This GIF was created from ezgif.com, the easiest way to create GIFs from videos at the highest quality and lowest file size.

I removed the text, birds and rust from the boat and applied paint on the boat by using a multiply overlay. I also made a wooden base for the boat and applied shadow at the edges.

I used "blend if" options, "refine edges", "brush" and pen tool options inside photoshop blending options for cutting out the seaweed. Later I placed them on top of another and created these tall seaweeds.

I made a cut-out of the mountain from the template image after removing the houses that were visible and applied these colours on top of it by making a clipping mask and reducing the opacity.

For the water bubbles, I used this image. I took a small portion from the image and removed the blue area by going into "blend if" inside the blending option and by changing the slider of gray channel from left to right.

I used spot heal and clone stamp for removing Arun and plants from the image.

The only used the blending option lighten for blending the jellyfish image.
