Overlays – Continued

For my next shoot I continued to work on refining my series of photos in which I photograph an area, collected items from the area, before scanning and merging the two with a bit of digital manipulation using Adobe Photoshop.

This shoot was taken at Waterditch near Bransgore.

The objects in the image above were picked off the floor at the current shoot location. I scanned these in at 1200 dpi, before using Photoshop’s Quick Selection tool to select them and overlay them in as a new layer in my photograph.
