As usual, I used back the last edited image to further continue to do editing and for this round, it would be editing on the Advanced Layering Techniques.
Last edited image was open together with the layers of the images that I selected to do this Advanced Layering, which are the images of the sun and also clouds. Both images were selected as to enhance my edited image.
Respective layers were labeled for easy reference.
Next, in order to start building a composite image, we can add further images or artwork and then clip it to a shape.
Just to show on how to clip a layer to a shape, I used two images from two different layers to do the clipping. In a very simple step, press ALT while the cursor is in between of the layers until it becomes a double-circle icon, and then click.
After that, I then enable the indicator for the layer visibility so that all layers now are to be seen.
We can then further enhance the effect of the layering by double clicking on the selected layer.
As the main addition into this image is the cloud, therefore, it would be better if further enhancement in terms of its effect, and to do this, a duplicate of the cloud image by just choosing 'Duplicate Layer' from the right mouse click, and then rename the layer as Cloud2.
After that, just double clicking on the layer of the Cloud2 to create effects on the cloud.
To create darker tones, or levels, or to be made transparent can be achieved by just dragging the slider to own preference.
And finally, additional info that needed been key-ed in to the image by using Horizontal Type Tool.
Meanwhile, further enhancement can be made onto the image through Adjustments tab.
I have selected 'Levels' to adjust the level of shadows onto the image
AND finally, the image finalized as below:After gone through few steps starting from the Selection Tools up till to Advanced Layering, found out that the Photoshop is able to change so many things to make this life to be more beautiful if not perfect.
