Next you have to go to Layer – Layer Mask and Hide Selection. Then you just click away at the other colours there until you reach a point when you should have a perfect of close to perfect black an white between the birds and the sky. Note that if you have a few different colours on your sky, you can click on the + Eyedropper to the right of your normal Eye Dropper under save.
The way to isolate the birds is to go to Select – Colour Range.Ĭlick on the Blue area to create the selection and press ok. Now that we have our selected picture added to our main we have to remove the background to isolate the birds.īefore we do click on the Eye Icon in the original background layer to hide it. Then we will be done with with the original Birds image so you can close that down so save space. Once you have your selection and you’re happy click on Edit and Copy. You just have to draw around loosely as we will be able to fix any mistakes later, so grab a nice sized group or how ever many you would like. I grab the Lasso Tool (Shortcut = L) and I draw around them creating my selection. Two two images that I have chosen to use are as follows.Īs you can see I’m going with that Thinker Theme, and with the Flock of Birds well that’s what I used as my search keywords to find that image. I got both on . If you can get anything even close to similar then we are good to go. So what I want to do now is to create a selection around the birds that I want to add to my image. You know one of those images you could title “The Thinker” or “Forever Love.” But anyway enough of my Artistic thoughts and let’s get to he Photoshopping, we have no time for such Brainstorming. It’s the mechanical meat we’re after here, so flex with me and open up your Photoshop. Let’s Take a Closer LookĪ nice addition to these types of Images is to add in some birds. I find this type of effect addition works best in images of contemplation or to add a little bit of soppy romance haha. We can then group them together and look at the before which looked ok but a bit plain but we added some birds and color pop we have a little bit more interest to the after photo. I will choose a warming one and back it down a little bit to around 15 percent or so. I will click on the Adjustment > Photo Filter, and you can have a bit to choose from. The only thing that I will do, which is a personal preference is to add a photo filter, and this helps the birds in the photo blend very well. I just added six birds in the photo, and this adds more interest and looks nice. I will keep playing with the birds a little bit to position them in a way that looks like they are flying in a certain order. I will click on the individual bird and deactivate it, or I can click on it and move it around wherever I want to.
So, I will position the birds in a better pattern, and this is easy because the birds are cut out individually. Although the birds look good, the pattern is the same, and this could make your work look fake. I will go back to our original bird overlays, click and drag over the 3 birds again and follow the resizing process (Command/Ctrl-T) once again and keep moving the birds around there. Now I want to add a little bit more birds and make them a little bit larger, but I will leave the ones we’ve already added right where they are. I will size them down and position them strategically, and you can see we have birds easily added without looking fake or unnatural, but it adds a little more interest in the picture along with the folks. Once I size them down, I will place them over people on the beach and since they are seagulls, they kind of blend well with a photo looking more realistic. I don’t want to make the very large since they’ll look a little bit out of place or unrealistic.

After placing them on my photo, you can see they are little large and so with them highlighted, I will hit the Command/Ctrl-T which will allow me to do free transform and all I will do is size them down and put them on the area as seen in the tutorial. I will then highlight the three individual birds, click, drag and hold them over into my photo. To begin with, I will open the Photoshop file (there are Photoshop and JPEG to choose from). If you toggle them on you’ll see that there are some actual birds from the photo, but they cut them out and you have the 3 e are going to use here. I took one of the bird overlays from one of the Autumn Pumpkin Graze Collection you can see there are three birds which they have selected.
