I wanted to create an A4 print to hang on the wall in my office and so had a play in Photoshop today.

I have never done a collage before and was curious what people thought of them. I am personally quite happy with the results. C&C welcome of course!

I like the idea of this type of collage. In the future I would plan to use a set of photos for a collage, and take a few at each scene from slightly different angles and piece those together.

That these images are single images with frames pasted on them is what detracts from the overall effect.

Great wall hanger for the family.

great job! this is so cool! the one of him in the jet engine is adorable...how did you manage to get him there btw?

i guess my one bit of criticism is also in the jet engine picture, the white part of the "polaroid" sort of cuts off the middle of the spool on the engine. kind of an eye sore...but that's really just me.

i really think you did a great job. cute little guy.

I agree to a point, I did a similar set with photos within their own border but when printed, this one just looked more interesting. (At least to the untrained eye!) ;)

Thank you! It was easier than it apears, there is a shop in the airport selling Airplane paraphernalia which has some old KLM bits outside, there is also a piece of landing gear, part of the fuselage and various seats outside. I have a similar photo taken by my dad when I was young, when I am stood inside a 747 engine. That was still on the wing of the aircraft though. I wanted to carry on the tradition.

Agree. I might have a play with the .psd file and rearrange that bit.

Thank you very much again, from one proud father.
