Why I love Photoshop



I love Photoshop because with a few simple steps you can take an ordinary photo and change it into something completely different. The original photo only had a few layers added to change it into the final image shown on top: I added a layer of text and adjusted the blend mode to darken and added a mask onto this layer to remove the text from showing on the leaves; the next layer was added from a free download provided by Shadowhouse Creations with the blend mode set to difference; finally a duplicate layer of the original photo is placed on top and a mask was added so that only the original colour of the red leaves would be showing.
