Push the Button

Created by using Photoshop 6.0 and a laptop computer in a coffee shop. I started by making an organic-looking texture for the background using the Ocean Ripple, Polar Coordinates and Poster Edges filters and then creating a kaleidoscope image by copying one section, duplicating it and adding it as a mirror image. I added the photo images of the hands and colorized one to make it darker. Then I adjusted the hue and saturation and used the Dodge and Burn tools to add drop shadows and highlights to the buttons.
