HOW TO CREATE A HISTORICAL PICTURE “THEN NOW” AND ANIMATED GIF
Then-and-now images are much more than just a funny picture.

REFLECTIONS IN PHOTOS. HOW DO THIS?
Reflections are generated by the light source. However, it should not be displayed in the frame. Consider, for example, a landscape photograph of a small alpine lake reflecting the silhouettes of dark trees surrounding it.
