global warming

hi friends..
global warming is the most gigantic problem ahead of us.. in order to create awareness i did this PS image..

STEP-1:

for this image i googled suitable images below..

STEP-2:
now take the earth image and make it a bit redish yellow in colour like this..

todo this goto image>adjustment>colour balance and bring the cursor in to the last in both the red and yellow section..

STEP-3

bring the fire ball image and fit it exactly to the center of the earth.. and change the mode of the fire ball to overlay..

STEP-4:

now bring the black hole image and fit the earth and the fireball image into it..

STEP-5:

now bring the fire image and warp it according to the earth curvature and fix it.. if u want give a linear dodge so that the fire looks a bit bright and highly detailed..

and this is my final image..

first desaturate the image..

IMAGE>ADJUSTMENT>HUE/SATURATION.. and completely bring the saturation down to 0..

now the image looks like this..

STEP-2:

duplicate the layer and rename it as person.. now cut the person from this dupliacted layer using various tools such as lasso, eraser and quick selection tool..
