Difficulty was in making sure the models and shadows don't get erased by other layers. On reflection, reducing opacity would be one way to make the other layer visible and help with the masking.
No tripod was used when taking the pictures and the software did a good job realigning the pictures.

The “f” in f-stop stands for the focal length of the lens. While focal length itself refers to the field of view of a lens, f-stop is about how much light you allow to hit the sensor via the aperture opening. The aperture is the hole in the middle of the lens, made up of rotating blades that open to let in light when you press the shutter release. The diameter of the aperture determines how much light gets through and thus how bright your exposure will be.

An f-stop is expressed as a fraction, with “f” as the numerator and the f-stop number as the denominator. The aperture size reads inversely to its corresponding f-number: The smaller the f-number, the larger the aperture. The larger the f-number, the smaller the aperture.

Film speed is the measure of a photographic film's sensitivity to light, determined by sensitometry and measured on various numerical scales, the most recent being the ISO system. A closely related ISO system is used to describe the relationship between exposure and output image lightness in digital cameras.
The higher the sensitivity, the grainier the image will be. Ultimately sensitivity is limited by the quantum efficiency of the film or sensor.

Pictures are stored on Secure Digital cards or SD cards Secure Digital cards or SD cards. There are three main types of SD cards based on their physical size; SD, micro SD, and Compact Flash. The SD cards are the first type in the family of memory cards that were introduced to the world. The compact flash is even larger than an SD card and is used only in DSLR cameras.

Card speed class defines the rate at which a device would be able to read and write images and other data to and from the memory card. SD cards have the lowest data transfer speed while the compact flash has the highest.
Secure Digital High Capacity or SDHC cards are generally faster in speed and have a capacity of up to 32 GB.
SDXC is the type I use and stands for Secure Digital eXtended Capacity. As the name suggests, they offer a much higher storage capacity as compared to the SDHC card. Their storage space starts at 64 GB and goes up to the capacity of TBs. The data transfer speed is also higher.

Euclid (400 BC) found that the division of a line according to a certain ratio can go on indefinitely. This ratio is the golden ratio. It is an irrational number, which means it cannot be written down as a natural fraction.

The number is 1.618 followed by an infinite amount of digits symbolised by Phi.

In 1797, Sir Joshua Reynolds taught at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. He believed that a painting works best when the use of light and dark has a ratio of ~ 1/3:2/3.

John Thomas Smith came up with the rule taking the 1/3:2/3 division further, saying it should be used for everything in a composition.

1. Horizontal lines: often found in nature and landscape photography.

2. Vertical lines: communicate power and hierarchy. Often found in fashion photography and street photography.

3. Diagonal lines: Diagonal lines are used to create a sense of movement and change. Emphasize a sense of distance / depth and often track from foreground to background.

4. Converging lines: situate the subject of the image at the axis of the converging leading lines. Effective at drawing the eye to the point of convergence.

You have the right to photograph any subject as long as you are in a public place. Some public places do have bylaws preventing commercial photography, such as in Trafalgar Square, Parliament Square and the Royal Parks.

You have the right to keep any photographs you take unless confiscated via a warrant.

You do not need permission from your subject to take their photograph.

You own the copyright to any photographs you take, not the subject.
There is no specific law in the UK against photographing people, even children. It is your right as a photographer to take a photo of whatever subject you like, providing your subject is not in a public place.

# data[].attributes.body
Whoever presses the button on the camera that takes a photo owns the picture and therefore owns the copyright. Copyright gives power to the image owner to decide who uses their photos and in what type of context it is used.
If standing on private property (trespass) when taking a photo there is a potential claim on your copyright from the land owner. They might claim you couldn’t have taken the photo without being on their land, therefore they have a stake in the image.

# data[].attributes.body
Trains
You can take photographs at train stations for personal use. Any commercial photography requires prior permission from the train operator or Network Rail. Flash photography is banned, and you may be asked not to use a tripod.

The Tube
Personal photography is fine, but you must not use a flash or a tripod on the platforms. If you want to spend longer than 15 minutes taking pictures, or you want to sell the pictures, you need to apply for a permit.

Planes
Airports are private property, so standard restrictions apply. Generally, only photos for personal use can be taken in the terminal lounges. Most civil airports have viewing areas outside the boundaries, from where you can shoot aircraft for other uses.

The amount of light e.g. photons is a physical quantity which can be compared to water. The aperture is similar to the bore of a pipe and the shutter speed to the flow speed of the water. The ISO can be modified to allow the camera to cope with different quantities of light without getting too dark (not enough light) or too white (too much light).
