Today's Daily Texture depicts a lovely ocean scene in a painterly fashion.  I paired this texture with this beautiful gull.  The gull photo was shot on a gray, cloudy day, so behind him were gray skies.  I increased the exposure of his photo a bit to make those skies more on the white side, and to brighten him up a little.  Then I placed his photo on top of the texture and set it to multiply mode, which basically made his sky disappear.  I then duplicated the texture and placed it on top, setting it to overlay at 100%.  This brightened everything up and boosted the color.  Some deep fog in my area this morning inspired me to add a little fog over the bottom half of the image.  Below, you will find a link to download a white, foggy gradient which you can also use to give your images some fog, if you desire.  I lowered the opacity of the fog layer a bit, and then I also masked off the top half of the fog layer to complete this image.
