Post your photoshop exploits [View all]

I thought it would be interesting to share some of the things you've done in photoshop to give others inspiration and instruction. I'd suggest posting before and after images when possible as well as a description of what you did.

I'll start off with one I just did at my son's prodding.

This one really wasn't much work. I started with photos of my uncle in a soybean field and a photo I took of an explosion which was part of an airshow. I brought the two images into photoshop as layers, did some cleanup work on the photo of my uncle, positioned the explosion so it was at the back of the bean field, applied layer masks, and then added some blur to the explosion so that it would approximately match the blur at the back of the field.
