CommentFun watching Greater Crested Tern diving for fish capturing separate images of the bird about to dive and submerged. Both raw images were imported into photoshop from Adobe Lightroom and a new image created with two layers - the submerged bird being the bottom layer. Selecting the top layer of the bird in flight, an image mask was created followed by selecting the gradient tool and creating a gradient from the bill of the bird in flight to the tip of the wing of the submerged bird.
