Originally from Nelspruit, now living in Johannesburg. When I’m not shooting, I work in photographic retail. Photography to me is not just a job, but an obsession and a means in which I have documented my life in images.

Hi Armani! im reading your article published in the photocomment book, page 16 & 17. issue 34. Feb 2012.
I have taken a sequence of 6 shots, am now trying to get all the images into Photoshop, the 1st image is “background” … how to i get the other 5 pics into the layers?
Hi Wes. Sorry for the late reply. You would need to open all the images you intend on using in to Photoshop. Go to the 2nd image that would appear in the sequence, press ctrl and A at the same time. This selects the entire image. Then press ctrl and C to copy it to the clip board. Then go to the image that would appear first in the sequence and press ctrl and v to paste it in the correct order in the layers pallet. The 2nd image will now sit above the 1st image. Repeat the process for the remaining images in the sequence. I hope that helps.
