Project Requirement: Merging and montaging a set of photographs into a single composite image

Photomontage is the process and result of making a composite photograph by merging a number of other photographs. The composite picture is photographed so that the final image is converted back into a seamless photographic print through an image-editing software such as Adobe Photoshop.

A photo montage may contain elements real or surreal/imaginary. When creating a photomontage, a pre-planning is worth to effort and improve the quality of motif and memories you create. Before you begin your brainstorming, ask yourself, what do you want the work to say?
