Let's Make a Collage - Round 122 | Temple

LMAC Round 122 FINAL.jpg

Hello Friends, Here is my participation in the Let's Make a Collage Contest Round 122

This week I had to finish the collage as fast as possible as I have a university exam next week. I collected images from pixabay, purepng and lil. The building's style in the template looked more like Japanese architecture, but not sure. I only choose images that followed that tradition for making this collage. I had this idea of making a temple like appeal to the collage and a woman holding a lotus, as most temples have a pool next to it, at least in India. So I used that concept for constructing this location and also added a few other images for making the scene look a little more dramatic.

Software Used: Photoshop CC
Time Spent: 2hrs

The first step was to create an environment for the subject of our collage. So I used all the images that I can find from the whitelisted websites and created a night scene at a temple. It was all cut and paste and for the night theme I used the lookup table preset inside photoshop called moonlight. The perspective of the template image was adjusted to fit nicely with the scene.

Then I placed the subject in the centre and turned the flower colour to pink as in the native image it was white.

After doing that I added the LiL asset to the image and also some feathers.

At the time of colour grading I noticed the building looked more like a cut and paste, So I added a path to the building by using the tool Clone Stamp in photoshop cc. Then I placed this plant to cover up the imperfection of the clone stamp.

Images used in this collage

This time I used a lot of images for creating this collage. I think I took most images that looked like Japanese from pixabay and purepng. All the images used in this collage are listed below and for the images taken from LiL the contributor was added as 2% beneficiary.
