Step 6

On the layer mask partially remove the image. Carefully work through the background that was not prominent features. make it smooth. To help, here so I did. First – this is where I remove, it is the second kind of mask layer.

11
12

Step 7

Add texture to convert background. Go to File > Place and select the image “nature_bokeh_stock_by_koko_stock-d73dkvv”.

13

Transform the texture on all working fields.

14

Change the values Opacity to 75%, Blending Mode to Overlay. A similar result can be achieved and adjustment layers, but will not look so impressive and fast. Sometimes I like such surprises. Should pay attention to them!

15

Step 8

Duplicate this layer (the short key Cmd /Ctrl+ J or go to Layer> Duplicate Layer…). Increase the size and place this layer as shown in Figure. Use the Free Transform tool (Cmd /Ctrl+ T or go to Edit > Transform > Scale). This is in order to make the texture is not the same type.

16

Step 9

Now merge the layers with texture to the one group, and add to it mask.

17

Step 10

Select the Brush Tool (B) with there settings: Size: 600px, Hardness: 0%, Opacity: 100% – 50%, flow: 100%.

18

Remove some of the texture from the center (where the girl is sitting, a tree and a little close). Remove the texture on the corners of the image by changing the brush opacity to 50%,

19

Add to the bottom layer with the texture adjustment layer Curves (Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Curves… or click on icon New Adjustment Layer and in list, select Curves…).

12

Set points for each channel, as shown in Figure.

11

Step 11

Merge all layers with the background and the group with the texture in the one group “Interior” (Select the desired layers + Cmd/Ctrl + G). In the future we will return to it.

Step 12

Now add the mushrooms! All we have 3 types of of mushrooms, we do the rest :). Let’s start with outer of mushrooms. Go to File > Place and select the image “More_HDR_Mushrooms_10_by_Dracoart_Stock”.

21

Step 13

Reduce, rotate them and place as shown in Figure. I chose a place for them in a small clearing moss, so as to create the impression of the incident light from the general atmosphere
