This project was really fun for me.  I had a bunch of unedited images of a cute little barn sitting near a small pond.  And I took some SQIBB (Studio Quality Invisible Black Background) photos of myself. It’s always just a little bit difficult to take portraits of yourself.  I put the SQIBB image of myself on top of the Barn shot and added a solid layer of black.  I then blended those layers together to get the final poster above.  I also added several adjustment layers and masks – I probably ended up having over 30 layers for this project.
