About all this model has in common with the remembered storybook character is the fun and spunky costume. Getting into the design of this, I was wanting to work on my compositing skills. Getting a person, or any specific object, from one photo and into the scene I am creating is definitely one of my current weak spots. So, my main focus was working on developing skills to be further refined on my next pieces. Pick one thing to be the thing you obsess about fixing, and figure out how to get that one thing done. Complete. Finido!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The background/foreground scene around the subject is a collection of different leaf and tree photos from <a href="http://pixabay.com/">Pixabay.com</a>. I moved and nudged each photo to get it in the right place with the right edge and the right order from front to back. A video I spent time watching that influened my color coordinating during this project was youtube videos by Rafy-A as he works through a piece.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Simple Composite of background and model. Started this design to enter for Cathleen Tarawhiti's book cover design contest. Did not complete in time for the submission deadline. Spent to much time wandering around playing with different technique's. Loved the lavender's in the model's dress, and how the colors play along with the sky. </span></div>

Mixing and matching different photos, pngs, vectors, etc. is one aspect that makes photo manipulation so addictive. Most of these are various sizes and shapes, and have to be resized to 'fit' with what your vision is.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A headache that I kept coming across working on different book covers, was adding an object/background/etc. and not being able to find the edges to 'transform' it to a manageable size. <i> {Hard to find a trick for it on-line.}</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But, I did stumble across how to get this done. And even managed to do it a second time, and a third! So... in case you have been trying to find a work around for this. Here ya' go!</div>
<br />
<br />
1) Have your PS doc open <i>{I think this is a given, but...}</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4N1XFLozjtQ/WG0R-f6qUcI/AAAAAAAAAFI/nx1OctlFudEC1_WxNbTKOugQDjEGPgNHgCLcB/s1600/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="241" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4N1XFLozjtQ/WG0R-f6qUcI/AAAAAAAAAFI/nx1OctlFudEC1_WxNbTKOugQDjEGPgNHgCLcB/s320/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Select the layer that needs to be reduced, and open transform tool. 'Ctrl' + 'T'</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The X and Box will now show up, but the corners <i>{all of them, or just two}</i> won't be within the doc bounds.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tSyw9jq8aS8/WG0R-vP9ANI/AAAAAAAAAFM/zNFkNvPlfIIKL-bayoRPr37SRzNIfphtQCLcB/s1600/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tSyw9jq8aS8/WG0R-vP9ANI/AAAAAAAAAFM/zNFkNvPlfIIKL-bayoRPr37SRzNIfphtQCLcB/s320/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) 'Ctrl' + '0' <i>{zero}</i> moves the view back til the bounds of the layer are visible. Ta-Da!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now you can size down the image, move it around, flip it, etc. without struggling to find the corner and see where the layer will end up in relation to your other layers.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oejWYonQIFg/WG0SnZTRfmI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/cHMO8Uag-RM9bRj7nGeKNGYRVcjlJ1bSQCLcB/s1600/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="259" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oejWYonQIFg/WG0SnZTRfmI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/cHMO8Uag-RM9bRj7nGeKNGYRVcjlJ1bSQCLcB/s320/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4) Now click on a different layer, or close out of the transform tool <i>{click on brush tool or something}</i>, then 'Ctrl' + '0' {zero} will take you back to your background size layer filling the window.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XGb2hnZzL18/WG0TcclvCII/AAAAAAAAAFc/dQOIOWU2-xUcP_SUcz5WXQszSBodmbQtACLcB/s1600/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XGb2hnZzL18/WG0TcclvCII/AAAAAAAAAFc/dQOIOWU2-xUcP_SUcz5WXQszSBodmbQtACLcB/s320/Sizing%2BDown%2BLarge%2BObjects%2B-%2BLayers%2Bin%2BPhotoshop%2B-%2BDesiree%2BCompton%2B4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now you can keep the layer uncropped for fast resizing if needed, and still find the corners easily. Hope this helps speed up your Photoshop processes!</div>

Using a gradient allows you to show off the cloud overlay, while helping the overlay to blend seamlessly with the content of your photo.<br />
<br />
My post, <a href="http://desireecomptongraphics.blogspot.com/2016/12/playing-with-sky-overlays.html">Playing with Sky Overlays</a>, has links to the tutorial that I found helpful in using gradients as a blending method when substituting skies in your photos.<br />

Happy New Year y'all! Here is another organizing background for your pleasure.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This background highlights the gorgeous fall colors around this peaceful lake. Fall colors are something I sorely miss seeing out my back window here in Texas. A seasonal background helps fill that gap, but I still daydream about taking a trip up the east coast to see the seasonal display the trees there make each fall.</div>

Revising the DCompton Logo... <i>{again, LOL}, </i>and also looking for ways to improve some photos.<br />
<br />
Found a new photographer resource in Morgan Burks site; <a href="http://www.morganburks.com/">www.MorganBurks.com</a><br />

Her free samples let you try out her product. Something I appreciate. Since I get to see how her products will work before plopping my money down. You do have to use your e-mail, but hey... they are useful and a great tool to have.<br />
<br />
The tutorials are very clear and helpful. I only looked at a couple this weekend, but will surely be going back to her list to check out more of them.<br />

Following her instructions of the <a href="http://www.morganburks.com/a-quicker-and-easier-method-for-applying-sky-overlays-in-photoshop/">Sky Overlay Tutorial</a> lead me to try combining these two pics:<br />

I love the focus of the grass heads in contrast to the soft focus on the girl's face. For the edit I used a sharpening brush over her body and foreground, then overlaid the sky. Following Morgan Burks' tip on matching the overlay to the focus of the horizon in the photo, I used a fairly heavy gaussian blur to soften the sharpness of the clouds. The finished product is very nice.<br />

Here is the link to the <a href="http://www.morganburks.com/free-sample-products/">free sample products: overlay, actions, etc.</a> that you can try out from Morgan Burks.<br />

I have my eye on her collection of <a href="http://www.morganburks.com/product/mb-cinematic-skies-sky-overlays/">Cinematic Overlays</a>. Who wouldn't want this fabulous collection of 102 overlays?<br />

Now I find myself going back through my photos to see what ones have stunning skies that I can use to spruce up the tops of the photos I am editing. ;-)<br />

Tried it once, and lost the brush once I created it. It was never to be found again ;-)<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So... now that I am using a new version of Photoshop, and have been finding several things have been updated, I decided to try it again.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here is the logo with text... <i>{I have to say I am super happy with the 'eye'}</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And here is a photo 'stamped' with the brush.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Much simpler than the last time I attempted this.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The video I referenced was by Helen McGlynn's Turn Your Logo Into A Watermark Brush in Photoshop. Very clear instructions, and easy to follow.</div>

Available in the four common screen sizes.<br />
<br />
Control click and save the image. Open in Paint, and add text for your box titles. Save it after you finish adding your box titles. Then control click on the saved image, and choose 'set as desktop background'. Easy, peasy.<br />
<br />
The categories/box titles I tend to use are: Photos, Projects, Important, Family, To-Do, ASAP<br />
<br />
Helps keep me on task, and I can easily move the folder or doc to the next square if needed. Enjoy!<br />
