Had some fun with this one. The seal and the background penguins were already there. I added the polar bear, cat, and the penguin who is checking out the seal by removing the backgrounds from other photos and using the photocomposer.

The regional selection tool is awesome since you can adjust the tones of just certain areas of the photo so the blend in better.

Basic stuff for experts, but the point is I've only used the software for about 15 minutes and you can do some pretty advanced stuff without a heavy learning curve.

Great work OnTheWeb!

Did you say 15 minutes? It must have been an intense session!

Thank you for posting your manipulated photo. I'm sure it will inspire others to have some fun with it too.

That's a good point you made about using the regional selection tools to help match the light & tones with other parts of the image.
