12. Choose TWO of these types of Photomontages to create on your own.
You must use portions from at least 3 photos for each montage.
(one may be a background layer, so you might use the whole image)
Save them as .jpgs and name them "Photomontage 1" and "Photomontage 2" upload to FlickR along with all the original images. (33 points each)
How many images are uploaded to FlickR will depend on how many original image files you used to create your Photomontage! Minimum will be 4 (3 originals and your Montage).
In the Description Field for each of the final images include 3-5 sentences that explain your concept/idea and the process (Blending modes and PS tools used) of creating the image.
