PSD Tutorial: Manipulating Aerospace & A Panoramic Sunset Landscape

In this Photoshop tutorial, We'll be demonstrating how to photo manipulate a stunning sunset landscape. We'll be Photoshopping the aerospace into an extremely vivid, wide angle, panoramic piece of graphic artwork. The warm yellows, reds and orange hues contrasted with the naturist black flora creates a striking effect against the gradient filled southern hemisphere of Cornwall in South-West England. I took this photograph with my Canon EOS 550D. In the sunset sky, I've used stock photography to add a distant planet, a few stars, a meteor shower and some galactic space.

If you don't have Adobe Photoshop, or you would like to upgrade to the new CS5.5 Version, take a look at the Adobe Special Offers from the online Adobe Store. If you're new to Photoshop, we have some beginner tutorials and basic tips coming very soon for some of the lesser established designers.

Photoshop Tutorial Step 1: Photo Manipulating The Panoramic Sunset

1.1. Have the Sunset Landscape Photo open, Duplicate (Ctrl + J) it, change the Blending Mode to Color Burn, and the Opacity to 80%.
1.2. Paste (Ctrl + V) in the Planet Photo. With Image » Adjustments » Hue/Saturation, minimize the Saturation.
1.3. Do this with the following Stars & Meteor Shower Photo too. Anyway, change the Blending Mode of this layer to Soft Light.
1.4. Paste in the Stars & Space Photo, don't forget to minimize the Saturation, and make the Blending Mode on this Soft Light too.
1.5. Finally, repeat the steps with the Meteor Shower Photo, except maximize the Brightness and make the Opacity 25%.
1.6. As a final effect, you could Create A New Layer, Fill it a desired colour, and change the Blending Mode to Hue.
1.7. I Duplicated & Flipped some of the images as they were not large enough, which worked well enough.
