1270 - Photoshop Patriots


My wife commissioned me to create a picture with us standing in front of our tree, with a Canadian flag flying proudly from its tallest branch.  The second step of a three-step step-ladder is enough to make me giddy with vertigo, so I decided that I'd accomplish the entire thing in Photoshop.  

Both of us are Photoshopped into the base of the composition, the foliage is Photoshopped, and of course the flag is was raised using a clever assortment of ropes and pulleys until it was hoisted to the top of the tree.  Nope: it was Photoshopped.  I also used Photoshop to adjust and correct the colours and to crop out some extra people and cars.
