STEP 12: With the background stairs layer active, use
Content-Aware Scale again, but this time use it to resize
the image to fill the canvas at the top. Remember to hold
Shift so that you’re only scaling it vertically, and drag the
top-middle control point up until the top of the original sky
touches the top of the new canvas size. This should mostly
stretch the blank sky area over the new canvas and do very
little modification to the stairs. If this gives you a challenge,
you can marquee-select just the sky area before choosing
Content-Aware Scale.
STEP 13: Turn on the visibility of the Runner layer, and feel
free to reposition or resize him any way you like. Try to
make sure his left foot is in alignment with the edge of a
step. Here on the right are a few examples of how he can
be repositioned. But remember, you wouldn’t flip the runner
horizontally because then the highlights and shadows on
his body wouldn’t match that of the background!
