When reviewing photos on Instagram and/or Pinterest, at times photos come up that seem to good to be true. Did someone wait for the perfect moment, was it stage or just a lucky shot was captured. Chances are, it was created on a computer from various images and you were caught in “awe” of the composite photograph. Some composites are very subtle and you may not even know it’s there, while others are more noticeable and feel like you’re in the middle of watching a movie and you’re struck at the artistry of that image.

Not sure of what a composite image is? A composite is a photograph that combines several photographs or stock images into a single image. This process has become increasingly popular as a way of creating images either real or surreal; your only limitation is your imagination.
