"Plane Crashing" is a compositing exercise in Photoshop to create a photo realistic image from compositing stock images in Photoshop. I payed a lot of attention to light direction making sure shadows in the mountain matches the shadows on the plane and the parachutes. I also inspected the pixels close up on the plane with motion blur making sure that the other elements at the burning engine had the same amount of motion blur. From start to finish this project roughly took me 3 hours.
