Description The Magic Faraway Tree


With thanks to 's tutorial on Dodge & Burn clipping masks that inspired me to go off and look for a tree stump.

Found this beauty and turned him into a magic tree house - as you do. I remember reading the book when I was little and imagined this would be what it looked like.

Using my newly learned skills of blending/adjustment/gradient layers/dodge&burn layer and the magic of clipping masks.

Continuing my quest for 1 manip-a-day = 9th/31



Thanks for being magic

Everything has the potential to be useful...

I've actually searched for "rubble" stocks before
