I hope this posting will help me attract further followers. If you’re interested, have a look at twitter.com/photoshop weblog. Read more »

Into the future

Without gravitation
By Dirk Metzmacher
Just a simple collage, actually. Two photos are combined in a new image. The path tools are used to separate a man from the background. Then he’s inserted into another shot, and colors and contrast are adjusted. It’s still a great collage, for gravity is missing here.
