Weekly Photoshop Challenge

Here goes:

Digging through our PhotoDiscs I found this photo and decided these fellows needed a bit of drama on their hike. Problem was, the drama had to come from behind and there wasn't much room...



... so I made some room by expanding the canvas, copying a portion of the photo from in front of them and pasting it on a new layer behind them...



... then I used a layer mask and a soft brush to hide the seam. That should be enough room for the drama. Now, why did I bother with that if I'll be knocking out the background later? Because I didn't understand what was wanted at first. I was tired and slow of mind. After looking at what others had done I realized I was on the wrong track.



"The drama"



Add "the drama" in silhouette form.



Then to make it fit the desired theme, I droped out the background, added iPods and fitting (in many ways) text.

And that completes my first entry for TXArtcGal's Photoshop Challenge.
