• Sent Image to Photoshop

In Photoshop

• Open a PSD File that contained layers with various brush strokes
• Highlighted all Layers and dragged them to my image.
• Unlocked the Tree image and dragged this layer to above the clipping mask.

• Added a ReflectedGradient Overlay to Layer 1 using a white to pale green with opacity of 51% with an angle of -130. Scale 103
• Added a colour overlay to Box layer – Black with 43% opacity.
• On the Clipping mask, using a powder brush I changed the angle and jitter and made random brush strokes with a low opacity and flow to bring out more of the original tree image.
• Saved image which was then sent back to Lightroom.
