Photoshop: Book Cover > Filters and Shape Tools

I took the following steps to create these images:

1. Opened the provided lake image and used the patch tool to remove the watermark.
2. Pasted an image of an old map of Maine into the document and used the Path tool to create a selection of the sky, which I used to apply a layer mask to the map image.
3. Merged the document, converted for Smart Filter use, and began applying filters to the image (images posted below).

To create the book cover:

1. Created a 7"x9" document.
2. Pasted my favorite filtered lake image into the document.
3. Resized the image to fit into the width of the document.
4. Used the shape tools to create the red band, blue background, and yellow oval shape.
5. Used the type tool to create the text layers, to which I added drop-shadows.
