Editing – Kaleidoscope

Step 1

First, you pick an image and put it into photoshop.

Step 2

Image – Canvas size – Change size to cm – Double width

Step 3

  1. Use the magic wand tool (4 down) to select the blank colour.
  2. Right click and press select inverse.
  3. Right click your image and press layer via copy, this will create a new layer.
  4. Click Ctrl T (free transform)
  5. Right click and press flip horizontal
  6. Drag this to the other side

Step 4

Now repeat the process but instead of doubling the width in Step 2, double the height.

Then just fiddle around, rotate, blend your images until desired result.
