Touch Up Tuesday: Merging Photos

*NOTE: I'm not sure what's up with Linky Tools... It seems to have disappeared... I've paid for a subscription... but, the site is down or something. I don't know! Sorry! So, for now just post your links in the comments section.

Before:



Edit:

Edit: I didn't show my SOOC shots... they were way dark. But, I wanted to show how I took two photos that each had something I liked and didn't like about them and blended the good parts together. Basically I grabbed the first photo and dragged and dropped it over the second photo. Then, I erased the space where I knew the sea lion was. I did a tutorial a while back about blending photos... here's the link... it's the same basic idea.





Photography love...

    This is a fantastic touch up, when I first saw this photo I had no idea it had come from 2 separate shots!

    That's a great placement! I had no idea at all you had merged those photos when I saw it yesterday or the day before.

    The other day when I saw this image I thought that that addition was the greatest part about that photo...it really made the moment. Great job! Impressive and lovely.

    I love the edits although I wished you included the reflection of the child in the glass. All in all, that was way too cool!
