Lava Field

I chose to replace the grass and the sky in the lava field image, adding a mountain background and trees instead. I used the selection tool to select the areas that I wanted to delete and moved the layers so that the original lava field was highest. I mostly used the quick selection tool for this. I struggled with using the magic wand tool on areas like the rocks that contained lots of similar colors, so I switched to the quick selection tool for that reason. On the following images, I used the desaturate feature on the mountain layer, the posterize adjustment on the rocks layer, and the flip vertical transformation on the tree layer. I wanted to experiment with the ways I could alter certain layers in respect to the whole photo.
