    Sports Collage

    I'm posting this collage to see what some of you might think or comment about, this is the first attempt at doing this with painstaking hours in front of this computer in photoshop. I had it blown up and framed for my nephews high school graduation, he was a starter in lacrosse and football. The extra touch was the mom written in his glove as his mother passed away 6 yrs earlier, and he was playing in the state championship game in which they did win the state title.

    It's fantastic and a gift of a lifetime. Lucky boy!

    My oldest graduated too. I did a stitched photo of him pitching. It's shameful next to your poster. :blush2:
    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

    Re: Sports Collage

    How did you cutout the colored images? Did you use the lasso tool, magic wand, etc?

    I used the extract tool in photoshop. It lets you get a more detail area for cutting out the photos.
