What I want you to know or do:

1. How to use Photoshop tools correctly
2. Communicate ideas with text and images

Questions
1. How do you resize an image and keep it in proportion?
2. How do you use the magic eraser?
3. How do you know an image is high resolution?

Your assignment

Create a Photoshop document similar to the one above. To do this, you will need to have at least two images on two separate layers. The foreground image (the stones in this example) should be one that has a very simple background. A totally plain, one-color background is best. You will be cutting out the area surrounding the main image, so that the background layer is visible behind it. You decide on the background image layer. In the example above, the background layer is the sunset.
