Creating
a print is the ultimate goal for a photographer. From the moment the
shutter is released, its the image on paper that each photographer
likely has in mind when the scene is captured on the cameras CCD or
film. Yet the creativity involved in making the image in-camera doesnt
have to end when it comes time to output that final photograph. You make this effect by stacking layers in your image-editing program. I use Photoshopand the directions here are specifically for Photoshopbut you could work in other programs just as well. 1. Make a new plain white background document the same dimensions as the paper you plan to use in printing. Give it the same resolution (dpi) and the same color space as your image. When you print the final image later, youll get a warning message that part of the image is outside of the printable area; dont worry, as that part will be white and has nothing on it. Youre just making a canvas on which to drop the other layers.
