   The IHM Photography Club project that I had my students work on this month was "Photoshopping" themselves into existing photos taken off of the Internet.  The pictures bellow are samples that Joan and I made for the introduction.  The picture directly below is in PNG format with a transparent erased background so that it easily be pasted into any picture.  A bit of shadow adds an almost convincing look to many pictures.

Here's the original, taken from atop the Butte in the Matanuska Valley in 2006:
