1. Open image_01.jpg in Photoshop, copy and paste image_02.jpg.
2. Add or erase unwanted part from image, only keep left mountain as shown in the image.
3. Add image_03.jpg (cloud) on the top and change the blending mode to "Luminosity" and opacity to 80%. Erase bottom part with soft brush to merge with the composition as show in the image.
4. By using Lasso selection tool or pen tool make a selection of the statue, to merge with the composition use "Grass brush" to eraser bottom part.
5. Select brush tool and paint some shadow to the bottom left of the statue.
6. River painted with the brush (I draw the shape with Lasso tool and painted over that with brush) composition will look something like this -
7. Create new layer and use Elliptical marquee tool to draw moon, duplicate the layer and add Gaussian Blur (as per the requirement) I keep 8 radius. Change the blur layer mode to Linear Dodge (Add) and decrease opacity to 80%.
8. By using soft big brush I added haze. For waterfall I choose small brush and painted on new layer.
Layers stacking order -
9. Time for using Adjustment layer, rather than explaining each of them following image will tell you in detail.
10. Composition will look like this -
11. Painted some birds to add life in the composition -
12. Press CTRL+A and then CTRL+SHIFT+C for Copy merged, press CTRL+V for paste on the top of every layer.
13. Press CTRL+J twice it will add two duplicate layer.
14. Select top layer then go to Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur, keep radius 8.0 pixel. Change blending mode to Soft Light and decrease opacity to 40%.
15. Select bottom layer (2nd in stacking order) go to Filter - Other - High Pass
16. Create a new blank layer add white color then go to Filter - Lense Corrections and keep the value as below. Change blending mode to Multiply and opacity to 50%.
17. Final result will look something like this!
