In Exercise 3 is to create a photo collage of Neustadt an der Weinstrasse. This was made using Photoshop and the images that we had made during the city tour. At the beginning of the exercise, I went slowly, because I had never worked with Photoshop and accordingly had no idea how the program worked. The sidebar made with the various tools that further sub-points, and working with the various levels are a little hard at first. But after a short time, however, most problems were eliminated, so I could create my postcard with no major problems!
Now to create:
The first thing I thought about what motive I could take as wallpaper. I decided to take a picture from the marketplace, I think it is a beautiful view of the half-timbered houses and give them a nice background. Eg houses so I could sit behind the half-timbered houses, I copied the image and marked with the tool "magic wand" the sky of the picture and cut it out. Now I added this in my collage, so I had to put up the possibility of building behind the timber line.

The next step, I retouched the woman and the benches on the left image, use the tool " Clone Stamp "and resembled the floor or the shop window. Then I decided the collegiate church and another half-timbered house behind the houses to share. Therefore I took the "magnetic lasso" tool and cut out the two buildings and thus she added. The church I reflected horizontally, because they better fit into the picture.

To the upper right corner to fill a bit I added a sun and painted in the interior, with the brush tool, a face. Furthermore, I decided to illustrate more clearly the well. Therefore I cut with the "Lasso" tool from the well on a different photo and put it moved slightly in the collage. Also, I was still the Elwedritschebrunnen in the image, I brought, like all used items, first in the right size. Just like two palms and two statues.

As a last step, I used to insert the tool horizontal text "to the word" Neustadt an der Weinstrasse in the collage. Finally, I searched the Internet or a representation of grapes so the text to "underscore" and the arms of Neustadt, that I hung on the wall of a building. Ready was the photo collage.
