In today's tutorial we will present how to make breathtaking scene in Photoshop. We use  blend elements together using nondestructive techniques, paint with vibrant colors, and blur/smudge to create this tutorial  So let's have a look.....

Step 1 – Size

Open the background stock. The size of the stock is width: 2250px and Height: 1500px.

Step 4 – Edit

Now a new window will pop up. This allow you to edit the smart object. So press ok.

Step 7 – Save

Now go to folder you have the stocks and grab the image of the river. You will see that the image is an smart object itself, you can change the size clicking in the corners.
