What you'll be creating
Although this artwork has been created with Adobe Photoshop CC, you should be able to follow it with older versions without any problems. The main features that we're going to use are masking and adjustment layers, masking in order to select what we need from a picture, and adjustment layers to blend it all together.Tutorial Resources

thank you for ur tutorials.
Took me an hour to make it... it
I still cannot believe that the end result came from what the original photo started with. Very good work!
Fantastic Artist
Totally cool. Doesn't photoshop have the coolest features if you can make an image like this out of basically nothing?
The tutorials are very easy to follow and I appreciate that very much. I am just getting started and sometimes I am not even sure what photoshop can really do for me. I love the results. great work
The man sitting on the bench reminds me of my grandfather, who's passed away. This would be a great pic to memorialize him . Thanks for the tutorial.
So much helpful tutorial indeed to create magical or super-real photo. Thank you for sharing.
Have you finished this project yet? I would like to see the end results of others that have tried the tutorial.

Man Watching A Magical Sky - looks like an Incomplete tutorial. Disappointed. Unable to continual after staep 14.
Hehe, it's split into two pages. You needed to click "2" to get to the second page of the tutorial. Common sense really. It's a good tutorial.
