My Hometown

My hometown is a small town, Oxford, Connecticut. For this project I blended together pictures of things that remind me of home. The background is a picture of Southford falls, the streams and waterfalls that run through my town and the neighboring town. I also added a gazebo that is at our towns public library, the farm that is a very popular ice cream spot, and a cow, because my town is jokingly called a "cow town" by others in the area. I faded a picture of Connecticut with the town highlighted to show its location in the state. For this project I mostly used the magnetic lasso tool, the eraser tool, free transform tool, and layering.
