Photo Manipulation

10. Well… I choose a metal object picture, again from Photobreed.com This one looks like a machine internal face… I put this one into a new layer and change the colors a bit using Image > Adjustment > Hue/Saturation… some sepia toning, I think. And now… I choose a Mask! Ha! (If you like to use the masks like me, remember: Apply Layer Mask is your friend, avoid laaaaarge files). I use a soft brush erasing here and there, and setting the layer in Hard Light mode… Finally, the “Layer 10″ is here!

12. I’ve add an Adjustment layer, (Brightness/Contrast) using this values: Brightness: +23, Contrast: +15. This one is the “Layer 12″

You can fold all the layers in a “set” if you want to work with more order. The final image looks like this:
