Manipulating Landscapes

WAVE HELLO TO OUTER SPACE
I opened this image in PS
I altered the hue and saturation
Using the brush tool, I began painting, lifting galaxy effects into view. I focused on the naturalreflective light to the right. Adding in stars and highlights.
The idea of using a moon cylce seemed fitting. I added some text to pull a sense of design into the composition.

I wanted to push my exploration on PS so I selected a series of photos to do so. To expand on style and abilities, I combined a range of techniques and tools. Read the above images for exact steps on progression. I was very pleased with this piece, it took 2 hours at the most and it has proven to me that Photoshop provides a platform where the only limit is your imagination.

 

FROM OUTER SPACE TO MOUNTAINOUS LANDS
I opened this in Photoshop
Atered the hue and saturation
Using the selection tool, I cut out areas shaped like mountains, I took these mostely from the white crashing waves, taking advantage of the icy blue textures.
Once I had a puzzle in place, I used the brush and cloning tools to complete the scene.

 

DREAM LAND ON ICE

Mountain
After taking my waves to outer-space, I felt it was time to return to earth. I perused the idea of a mountainous landscape, adding stars and clouds for a soft, icy enchanted land. Read the captions for step by step progression.
