In this post I am showing you how I developed my image of a tree into a silhouette, and how I layered it to make it seem fuller than it already is. To begin with, using the magic want tool and also the quick select, I cut out the majority of the background. I then added a black colour overlay, which made the tree a silhouette. From this I then began to duplicate the layers and place them over each other so that the tree looked larger, as originally it seemed a little small. I added four duplicate layers to build on the tree and my finished product is the last image on this post.
