Blending layers step 1

Step 2: Add a Close-Up of an Eye

Next, find a close-up photo of a woman’s eye in the stock photo library. Pick an image with clear details and good lighting. Add it to the canvas and resize or reposition it so it overlaps with the waterfall in an appealing way. Experiment with placement to create a balanced composition.

Step 3: Blend the Eye with the Waterfall

Select the eye layer and go to the settings panel on the right. Under the "Compositing" tab, choose the "Overlay" blending mode. This will merge the eye with the waterfall, creating a unified, dramatic effect. The overlay mode highlights the textures and colors of both images for a seamless look.

Step 4: Adjust Colors with Hue Rotation

To make the design cohesive, match the eye’s colors to the waterfall’s tones. Add a Hue Rotation Photo Filter to the eye layer. Adjust the hue slider until the eye has a greenish tint that blends well with the natural hues of the background. Keep the adjustment subtle for the best result.
