The skies I used in the video are from:

Great job - short and simple! Thanks a million Anthony for all your videos.

[RickMentore]

Your videos are always educational and inspirational. I am now motivated to go out and shoot skyes & birds, thanks AM!

[priyadarshan]

Great work,
I keep following your videos regularly and learnt a lot.

[shlomoeshet]

Beautifully explained. Thank you Anthony.

[grahamegannon]

Thanks for the tips Anthony on adding a bird, or any objet, to an image.

[iqueque]

Great, simple and useful video, Anthony. Thanks

5:54 plus remembering to hold the shift key while dragging the handles to lock the scaling and maintain aspect ratio - otherwise your seagull could end up elongated or stretched. :)

[Richcovephoto]

Another great vid well explained, Thank you.

[BobG-ehfc]

Simple and to the point, another great video. Thanks!!

[bazwillrun]

Excellent video Mr Photographer dot com !...love that building

[NextScamdemic]

3:29 how did you get the seagull image loaded? It's driving me crazy, thanks

[TheUberSchattenjager]

how can you blur just the sky a little?

[romiemiller]

A note about imbedding the layer mask in the subject. I forgot once, and the mask, not the image, was pasted onto the background. I had to start over.

Hi Anthony. Thanks a bunch for your informative videos. I noticed that you always start with 'hey guys', but not all of us are guys. Maybe a hi everyone for the rest of us :). Thanks :).

[romiemiller]

It's definitely not easy for me on my computer.

I always watch your videos, except the "replace sky" ones...we enjoy taking real photos, not lego-building photos
