    Hi there. This is a great tutorial however, I am working my way through it and can’t seem to locate two of the resources you use in this tutorial. One of them is the “sky” image and the other one is the “birds” image. Neither of them are listed in the tutorial resources list. I really want to be able to replicate your image as closely as possible. Can you please provide the links for these resources? That would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again!

      Well, why don’t you then download the final PSD file? Usually there the original files are present within, since most of the time the manipulation is only done with non-destructive techniques like adjustment or masking layers.
      Then you can just copy the layer you are looking for into another file and work with this image.
      I would say for a copy/paste and transform the original file is not necessarily needed.

    Hola.
    La foto del cielo y los pájaros no la habéis puesto, pero no tiene una gran relevancia.
    Lo que no comprendo es este comando
    “Crea una nueva capa y haz una máscara de recorte. Haga clic derecho en la capa y “Liberar máscara de recorte”.
    Me lo podéis aclarar.
    Gracias.
