Thanks my boss. This is excellently exciting as usual. Keep up the good work.
I always love to see your post here on TH-cam and would be glad if you can harness more on compositing aspect to teach us on how to get pictures, use of elements, styles, colour checker among other pertinent things.
Thanks always.
PS: I would be elated to see your Instagram account and posts too. You deserve the best right from day one. One love from Nigeria 🇳🇬.

Steve you didn't mention that you need to hold the shift key in the free transform mode to enlarge the selection.
