I did a numerous amount of things to this picture. First i took two pictures, one of a guitar amplifier, and another of an open highway at sundown. The "see-through-ness" of the amp was created by using a "layer mask". i then preceded to add minor adjustments to the color and saturation of the pictures; ending with placing a feathered borer in, around the photo. The layer mask, i would say, cost me the most trouble in this whole procedure. The thing with the layer mask is, that when you use "color range" it does not always select what you want it to. Now, this is obviously no flaw in the technology, its just that it is hard to find the perfect equilibrium where you still get to keep everything you want, while, getting rid of what you don't. This resulted in me having to go back and erase and carefully color-back-in some of the edges. other than that everything else turned out fine and i am happy with the end result.
