Basic Compositing Pictures

there is a way to take multiple images and combine them into one composite or collage. With photoshop we can blending images together in beautiful and creative ways.
  • Open a couple image (2 images) that you want to combine.

  • Make sure that the mode of color are same. (Both are adjusted with the menu command Image> Mode).
  • Use the SHIFT key and drag an image to copy the picture to the other.

  • Use CTRL+T command to transform the image. Resize and move as desired.
 
  • After images are together and sized, they need to be positioned. Lowering the opacity of the top layer allows you to see what you're doing as you reposition the layers.

  • Use the Eraser tool in the toolbox and choose a huge soft brush. Set the specifications. Make sure that the brush hardness is set to zero.

  • Select the upper layer, and move the cursor from the top to the bottom of the image where the two pictures meet and Shift-click.
  • Finally: it's te RESULT. :D

    Coloring Grayscale Image

    There is a way to add some color into your grayscale image. It's easy and just take a few steps.
    • Open an image in your Photoshop
    • Make sure the document is set to either RGB or CMYK. because if your image mode is grayscale mode, you won't be allowed you to paint in color. 
    • Create a new layer. 

    • Change the blending mode of the new layer to either Color or Overlay. 
    • Use the Brush tool (shortcut B), choose a color (foreground color) that you want to color the image. 
    • Then, brush the part in your image that you want to colorize it. 
    • Use the eraser (shortcut E) if you want to erase the color if it out of patch. use the combination of Brush, resize brush, eraser, and zoom tools. 

    • Finally, your grayscale image is colored now. 
    • Some tips: you can change the color by using hue/saturation. you can find it in Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation.


    • Happy Coloring :D
