Now let's say we need to add more dramatic effect to that sky by maybe adding some clouds to the sky. So maybe you can go to the quick selection tool, and you can merge or precise silver selecting that score. That works like magic as you can see. Now let's invert our selection based on Command or Ctrl, Shift R. And let's maybe add those parts to our selection here using pore size and now instead of duplicating that selection into a new layer we'll be creating a most and I'm going to be talking in detail about masking over let's just go and click that button here. Create mosque, which will be adding a mosque to Our image showing only our selected area which is revealed in white. I'm hiding that sky so we have a transparent area, we can be getting that score anytime back by disabling that layer, holding Shift key and clicking on that thumbnail or that most to get it back or click once again while holding Shift key to disable the port from our image.

Now let's go to our sources folder and grabbing that nice sky image and selecting or move to disabling that look, so we can move our layer through two ways either to copy that mando Ctrl C and pasting that one in the other image or we can be dragging that image just like that and going to that file of that one. Maybe that one. He has that one dragging to the board Don't see our image. And once we release our mouse, we're going to be getting that score and re arranging or layers behind that mountain. So we have that score, you can move it out. Now we can make them blend together easily by either adding a hue saturation adjustment layer to that sky, trying another hue for that sky so you can add adjustment there to the sky and going with that slider Hue slider, trying to add more cyan to that sky so it can blend better.

Maybe something like that, or even can be adding another adjustment layer on top or layers. And that one will be called current lookup table. We'll be talking more about those in detail later. Our just a sneak peek for you guys. If you are really willing to learn more about Blending your images in a professional way. So we can be clicking that one here.

And we can be choosing from any of these presets. Those are just like Instagram filters. However, they can really blend our images better. So let's maybe go for any of these you can try teal and orange moonlight if you'd like to go for night scene, something like that. And maybe reduce opacity for that layer. So that's really looking nice.

Also, here's one more tool for you guys to discover. We're going to be selecting the clear once again maybe and underneath that lasso tool you can find polygonal lasso tool, which can be used many for more geometric shapes. We can be clicking and clicking just like that. So it's not going to be giving us an accurate selection in that case. Our maybe it was geometric shapes can be Very nice to create selection. However, it's clearly not going to be working well in that example.

However, let's try to close that selection. Now we can be trying to fill that one so you can see how it's gonna look like creating a new layer below our mountains layer and filling that one was white Mondo Ctrl Backspace, come on D, if you are also going for another direction like that one, and also is one more trick for you guys. If we try any of these, maybe that one single column, you can be clicking anywhere to have a single column selection. And later you can be adding a stroke to that selection maybe to have a stroke of a single line by going to edit stroke. Five pixels may be why we selecting the wrong colors. Why?

Maybe increasing the tune to 40. And here we go. So anyway, I'm going to undo that because it doesn't really go in our scene. And also I'm going to be hiding the clear for now. And guys, make sure that you apply that exercise on your PC, especially that image in here, as we're going to take that one from here to a completely different level. Hope you enjoyed that one and I'll be seeing you in the next one.
