STEPTS ON HOW I I MANIPULATED MY PHOTOS IN PHOTOSHOP

PICTURES


I also changed the background from white to transparent. I did this to make things easier for myself so that just in case I needed to use that photo on a different background I did’t always have to continuously keep changing its background. How I did it?
 
I basically opened the photo i needed to change then open a new file, clicked the background contents drop down list and chose to have the background transparent.

Then i minimised both pages using the middle icon at the right hand corner in order for me to work with both pages



I went back to the window with the photo clicked on magnetic Lasso tool in the tool bar then then traced arond keith.

I then clicked on select then inverse


Then used the arrow tool which is the first tool in the tool box to drag and drop keith tyler on to the transparent background

It Apperared big so i had to move the image around to find the edge and drag it in while holding the the shift key.

And here is the result. keith tyler on a transparent background

Then i saved it as a new document to avoid loosing the original copy.(I repeated this process for all of my photos that I planned on using)  And here is the finished image.
Tool box

this was on of the Images i experimented with. i opened it up in Photoshop clicked on filters, then artistic then cut out and i was left with this after i played around with the levels, edge simplicity and edge fidelity in the filter gallery.
