Texture+Final

To make my photo I cut out the treetops of the original picture and deleted them, cropped the flower picture, made and moved a new layer for the flowers, made a layer for the leaves, positioned the leaves, cut out the two parts of the cement path, cut out the forest floor, made a layer and positioned the pictures, use the dodge tool to lighten the background, and I used the burn tool to darken the leaves and flowers. Rule of thirds was a big compositional technique I used. This is shown by the three trees dividing up the picture. I emphasized the leafy, dried up texture by expanding it, and the soft flower petal texture by making it bigger. Next time I would like to make the picture look more natural.
