Famous City Postcard

You are going to create a postcard by clipping images into the letters of the city.

Open a new Photoshop document. Width is 6" and the height is 4". Set the resolution to 300 ppi.

Like any task in Photoshop there are multiple ways to achieve this desired effect.

You can place each letter on it's own layer and clip an image to the letter (place the image above the letter in the layers panel - holding option/alt while clicking between the two layers).

You can use the internet (google) to find your images. You need to set your search for advanced options and search for large images.

Take care and time to place pictures so that they can be seen.
