Layers. That's how this is done. How could I get a photo of the family AND fireworks at just the right time? The next day in photoshop. Camera on a tripod to get the fireworks. I handed the camera to a friend for the family shot. There's a few different ways to do this but I chose to lasso around what I wanted to keep with a feather of 25 pixels. I copied what I had lasso'd (ctrl-C) and then pasted (ctrl-V) on top of the fireworks photo. I positioned the family photo where I wanted and then began to erase away any extra that I didn't want from my lasso'ing. That's about it. It looks pretty cool though and you know it was a Fourth of July photo! I am sending to all friends and family who don't subscribe to my blog. They should all be subscribed to my blog right ... um... hello...
