Today we are going to be finishing up our tutorial-series on compositing an image in Photoshop. We will colour-grade the photo using the Curves Adjustment Panel, create a natural looking vignette with the lasso-tool, introduce the “iris-blur” and add some noise in select areas of the image.

Good one! very useful.
Great new photography tutorials app at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.photography.tutorials
Lauri, your tutorials are great! I truly enjoy the insight you apply to your composites.
A related request to your composites: Taking a subject, with shadows they cast, and extracting and then compositing both onto a new background, etc.
And perhaps an addendum to that might be, creating realistic shadows that “ground” your subject into their new backgrounds for those extractions where original shadows cannot be extracted.
Thanks! :D
Wow… That’s a tough one! :D Let’s see what I can come up with. Thanks for the suggestion Vernon! :)
