Final Photomontage- In Loving Memory of a Dear Friend: Simon Grama

The color was a bit off on my preliminary and my friends face was giving off a reddish tinge so I adjusted the color balance and skin tones to give the skin a more natural color

My Photomontage: In Memory of My Roommate Simon Grama

This Photomontage is in dear memory of my friend and roommate Simon Grama, may he rest in peace. Simon was killed in a terrible car accident on October 24th, 2011. In the far right you can see his coffin being lead up to heaven and in the left corner you can see his theoretical transformation to an angel with wings that continues to protect his friends and family from up in heaven.

Below are the links to some of the photos i used from the internet:

This is my little brother in 3 different stages of his life. In the Jewish religion when a boy turns 13 years of age we celebrate by making him a party called a Bar Mitzvah (in hebrew) for becoming a man and accepting the will of God and being responsible for his own actions, when until now it was the responsibility of the parents. I made this poster (using Photoshop) to display it at his "bar mitzvah" to demonstrate his growth from early childhood until manhood. Incorporated is three different images I merged into one final image.
