    I do quite a bit of image combining, but your tutorial offered a LOT of new tips and tricks to improve my processes. Best 5 tips for me in this one? 1) Drop larger image on top of smaller image; 2) Color Match tool; 3) Creating a separate drop shadow layer (MY FAV!); 4) Skewing the shadow; 5) Color Grading. Thank you, Colin!!

    These steps makes a Huge Difference for the final image look. From a "cheap work" we can turn things to "outstanding work". Thank you for your tutorial!

    THANK YOU!!! You break everything down so well! I haven't been able to find anything or anyone who can explain Photoshop in a way that ACTUALLY makes sense to me until YOU! I appreciate your videos so much!! Things are FINALLY starting to make sense and it's giving me confidence!

    Your instructions were easy to follow, you spoke clearly and explained what you were doing as I worked my way through. A big bonus for me was how you created a separate drop shadow layer and then skewed it to work with the shadows within the background image. I won't forget that wonderful trick! Many thanks.

    You are my favorite teacher Colin! This one went slowly enough for me to properly follow. Yes, I will have to watch it again and of course do my own trials, but this foundation in how to proceed makes that less daunting and easier to get on with. Thank you!
