Photo compositing

The process of merging visual elements from multiple images into a single, cohesive composition.

Core Techniques & Applications

  • Use Cases:
    • Bringing specific elements from one photo into another.
    • Correcting flaws in group photos, such as fixing closed eyes.
  • Workflow:
    • Loading multiple images into a stack.
    • Utilizing auto-alignment (effective even when images were not shot with a tripod).
    • Applying layer masks to selectively reveal parts of different layers.
