Photoshop Fixes #83

1. Opened in Camera Raw and made these settings:

Recovery: 50

Blacks: 25

Contrast: -25

Clarity: +50

Vibrance: +100

 

2. Then in Photoshop I put the plane on it's own layer and did some touching up.

 

3. I then made a new blank layer that I used for the water ( if anybody would like to know how I made the water please let me know}.

 

4. Then I put the clouds on a new layer.

 

5. I then made a copy of the plane layer, flipped it vertically and moved it down on to the water.

 

6. I made the plane copy layer a Smart Object and used a Displacement Map Filter set to:

Horizontal Scale: 50

Vertical Scale: 15

then check Stretch To Fit and Wrap Around.

 

7. Then I added a layer mask and used a Foreground to Background Gradient with White being the foreground color and Black the background.

 

8. I then merged all layers using the keyboard shortcut (CMD/OPT/Shift/E on Mac or Alt/Ctrl/Shift E on Pc)

 

9. Then I made the new layer a Smart Object and ran a High Pass Filter set to:

2 pixels and used a Blend Mode of Vivid Light.

 

10. I made the edge effect with a slight Drop Shadow.

 

11. I spent about an hour on this.

Done
