This is my dear friend Amy. The gentleman with her is her fiance, Dan. The third is a gift our friend Gladys and I bought for Amy's birthday that she loved. I started with the couple, pulled Amy out and joined her with her special gift.

Lady Shannon Framed.
This is the photo that I started with. My friend, Shannon, with the birthday wig made by another friend of ours.


Shannon's B-day Wig Original

For this I added a gradient and texture to the background. Then I inverted the layer and used the feedback reflective effect with borders, gradient and buttonizer for the frame.

Extra Credit

The first three photos are the originals that I adjusted for color, saturation and contrast to get the final image. In some instances the moire, contrast, deinterlace, and artifact adjusters were used. I found that the scratch remover was a problem with these photos because of the age. The third photo is embedded into the background and the second in the foreground. I used the clone tool to even the image out.
