step 1


this is how it should look after our tutorial is over.


step 2


duplicate the background layer 2 times and rename them to "layer1" and "layer2".
Layer2 should be at the top


step 3


flip vertical "layer2"


step 4


Hide layer 2


step 5


Now you'll select the road, you have to be very careful.
i used the polygonal lasso tool, it's up to you if you prefer another way to select the road .

avatar lundmikkelGreat tutorial. Wondered how you made it. I do suggest you use layer masks instead of erasing the layer. That's a loooot more flexible. But thanks for sharing...
