Change the blend mode of Gradient Map to soft light and reduce the opacity to 69%. Here are the results.

Step 16

Extract the tortoise using your favorite selection tool then place it to the main document as shown in the image below.

Step 17

Add a layer mask to tortoise and partially hide the underwater area of the tortoise by painting in the layer mask about 30% opacity and flow with soft round basic black brush.

Step 18

Add a Hue/Saturation and Brightness/Contrast Adjustment layer to the tortoise to blend it the scene.

Here are the results.

On the layer mask of both adjustment layers I hided the selected effect.

Here are the results.

Step 19

Add a Photo Filter adjustment layer to the tortoise and set the setting as shown in the image below.

Reduce the opacity of Photo Filter to 80% and here are the results.

Step 20

In this step, we’ll add water waves to the scene. Place the water waves image to the main document as shown in the image below.

Step 21

Add a layer mask to the water waves and hide the parts of water waves as shown in the image below using a soft round basic black brush.

Now, change the blend mode of water waves to hard light and reduce the opacity to 50%. Here are the results.

Step 22

To blend the water waves to the scene I added the Brightness/Contrast and Curves adjustment layer to it.

Here are the results.

Step 23

Now, duplicate the water waves layer two times including Brightness/Contrast and Curves adjustments layer. Position it in different places like shown in the image below to get more water waves inside the underwater. Here are the results.

Step 24

Add the Volcano image to the main document as indicated below. We only need the selected parts (see the image below) of volcano not the rest of.

Add a layer mask to it and hide the unwanted part to blend it to the tortoise.

Step 25

Set the blend mode of volcano to hard light. Here are the results.

Step 26

Now, duplicate the volcano layer two times and place it to left and right to cover the tortoise parts (don’t forget to use the layer mask) as shown in the image below.

Step 27

Now, select all the valcano layer and then press (Ctrl+G) to group them. Name this group ‘Island’. Then add a Hue/Saturation adjustments layer to the Island group. Set the setting as shown in the image below. You can see the results below.

Step 28

Place the tree image to the main canvas.

Step 29

Add a Brightness/Contrast and Photo Filter to the tree. Set the setting as indicated by below image.

Here are the results.

On the layer mask of Brightness/Contrast adjustments layer I hided the selected part as shown in the image below to brighten the right part of the tree.

Step 30

Place the stone image to the main document as shown in the image below.

Add a layer mask to the stone. Use a soft round brush tool to hide the unwanted parts as shown in the image below.

Step 31

Add Moss texture to the stone. Clip it to the stone layer then change the blend mode to Multiply. Reduce the opacity to 70%. Here are the results.

Step 32

Add the following adjustment layer to the stone.

Reduce the opacity of 2nd Brightness/Contrast adjustments layers to 53%. Here are the results. Now, select all the stone layers and group them then name this group ‘Stone’.

Step 33

Duplicate the stone group and move it to the right as shown in the image below. Here are the results.

Step 34

In this step we’ll extract the tree 1 using Calculation technique. Open the tree 2 image in Photoshop. Goto Window > Channel. Choose the blue channel duplicate it by right clicking on it then choose duplicate channel. After that Goto Image > Calculation (Make sure that duplicated blue channel is selected). Then set the setting as shown in the image below. You can experiment with any blend mode but most of the situation the Overlay and Multiply blend mode works best.

After using the Calculation, there will be an Alpha channel below the Blue Copy channel. Choose the Alpha Channel then load the selection by holding the Ctrl/Cmd key and then click on the thumbnail of Alpha channel. Go back to the RGB layer and add a layer mask to the tree 1.

Here are the results after extracting the tree 1.

Step 35

Now, place the extracted tree 1 to the main document. Add a layer mask to it and hide the unwanted part using soft round black brush. Here are the results.

As you can see we have so many rough edges on tree 1. We need to fix this. To fix it I added a blending option effect to the tree. Here are the values for blending options.

As you can see by applying a blending option effect all the hard and rough edges have gone. We have pretty much decent results.

Step 36

I reduced the saturation of tree 1 by applying Hue/Saturation adjustment layer to it.

Step 37

Duplicate the tree 1 layer and move it to the left as shown in the image below. Don’t forget to hide the unwanted parts.

Add a Blending Options effect to this layer again. Note that I have used same color for Inner Shadow used in previous step only the angle, distance, opacity are slightly different. Here are the setting.

Add Brightness/Contrast adjusment layer to it. Here are the values.

Here are the results.

Step 38

Duplicate the tree 1 again and place it, with the same Blending Option setting in previous step, as indicated by below. Here are the results.

I added a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer to it. Set the setting as shown in the image below and here are the results.

Step 39

Duplicate the tree 1 layer again and place it, with the same blending option effect in previous step, as shown in the image below.

I added again a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer to it. Here are the results.

Step 40

Duplicate it again and place it as shown in the image below. I have used the same color for inner shadow but this time I have changed the Opacity to 49%, Distance to 0, choke to 9 and size to 6.

Here are the results.

Add a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer and set the setting as shown in the image.

Step 41

Now, extract the tree 1 again for last time. Use the free tranform tool by pressing (Ctrl+T) on keyboard to resize it then place it as shown in the image below. Don’t forget to hide the unwanted parts using layer mask. Here are the results.

Step 42

Add a blending options effect to it and this time overall setting are changed. You can see it below.

Here are the results.

Step 43
