Surreal: Let It Free

This is a picture of Hiral and she has butterflies coming out of her head to symbolize the freeing of negative thoughts and unnecessary clutter. To make this photograph I first found picture a picture of a black and white sky. Then, I took a picture of Hiral, selected only her out of the picture, and pasted her on the picture of the sky. I made her black and white to make the whole photo cohesive. I then took pictures of different colored butterflies and cropped them into the picture. I selected all the layers of the butterflies and made a copy of the layers. I lowered the opacity of the butterflies using the duplicate layers and then made them all black and white using the original layers. Finally, I gave all the butterflies a drop shadow to make them pop. I think this photograph perfectly interpreted what I had planned.
