【Explanation】
This is the original photo.
Edit with Camera Raw.
Measure the angle and fix it horizontally .
Apply a mask and carefully paint the outline of the wood.
The background is painted black and the masked tree is displayed.
Brush it green to make it look fantastic.
Go to Filter Gaussian Blur and set it to 30 pixel.
Copy and flip vertically.  Move it to the right place and filter it.
Go to Filter Motion Blur and set it to 10 pixel.
Gradation is applied to the photo part to hide the extra part.                
Add a black gradient in the center to make it look like a waterside.
Next, capture the feathers of a bird that has the image of taking off from the water.
 In this work, I prepared 3-4 types of feathers.

Mask the wings and carefully mask them.
 Apply while blurring so that no roughness remains.

Randomly place feathers on the main background.  
Blur the wings on the front side to give a sense of perspective.
The wings are too bright, so mask them so that only the wings are dark.

・Fill them black, duplicate the layer, and set the blending mode to soft light.  
Set the opacity to 60% and 30%, respectively.​​​​​​​
・The left is before filling and the right is after filling.

I ‘d like to make a small blade float in the center, so I add waves to the water surface by filtering. Blur → Motion Blur.
 Place the wings there and add a shadow.
Sign and complete.
