For this project, I used only pictures that I have taken (or that have been taken of me) during the past few years. Most of them are memorable experiences or symbols that are important to me, such as the photos taken during my semesters in France and New Zealand. It took quite a while for me to complete this project, mainly because I had a difficult time placing and arranging each layer, considering there were so many of them, and making sure that the layers were in the right order. I played around a lot with drop shadow, inner and outer shading, and the stroke aspects of each photo. I also used the selection tools and the magnetic lasso to cut out some images, and used the eraser tool on low intensity to help blend others into the background. I saturated some pictures to help them stand out, and tried to put interesting borders around others to add interest to the collage.
