First I set the shape tool to “custom shape” so I could pick which shape I wanted to select on the images. Using the menu I changed the fill to white and the stroke to 0 so the colour in the custom shape would be white. I then went to the settings wheel and onto “shape” tool and clicked amend.

I changed the foreground colour to white, and chose a shape I picked a circle. I then made the shape over the image and double clicked it so the shape layer would drop a shadow. (Opacity 40%, Distance 10 and Size 20) I selected the background layer and press the Cmd + J on the keyboard to duplicate it.

I then moved the layer around in the shape I created. Eventually for the last part, I held down the “Alt” and hover between the shape and the image layer until I saw the cursor change and clicked to clip the layers together. I transformed the layer to see the effect take place. I repeated this process in a different part of the image following the same steps which you can see on the following slide
Finished Image.
