Project 4

FILTERS:
In my project I used the sharpen tool on the polar bear as it was a little blurry. The sharpening on the polar bear allowed me to lower the opacity to blend with background. I used the Gaussian blur on the edges of the sun as it blended it better with the background.

I used clipping mask on the text and applied flames in the background. I was trying to keep the picture simple and didn't want to add to much to the background. I really didn't want to add text but it was a requirement. I tried using the warp tool on the sky and also trying to make the the smoke clouds bigger but didn't like the outcome, so I took it off. Overall I liked using the blending options like the Gaussian blur and also turning down the opacity. Found this project fun but also difficult on choosing a topic I wanted to stick with to create my picture around.
