Blog running…….

Photoshop has been an endless source as a tool for modifying and changing layouts to suit what I wanted. Today I found a really useful tool that allows subtractions from a current selection. This proved really useful when modifying images to match a background.

Content background was chosen by using Edit -Define Pattern
