Me and my family were in Pittsburg, PA, visiting some of our friends, and we were at this place called “Carnegie Science Center.” There was an exhibit there called the Minature Railroad and Village. They had a whole miniature city set up on a table and this is where I took the original image. I like taking photos, and this miniature village was the perfect place to take one. I took many other pictures, but decided to use this one for this project. I took this photo with my iphone 12 mini.

I liked this photo a lot, and it seemed to have a lot of potential to have a different background added to it. I thought it would get a way better image if I could change the background, and it did.

I used a website called remove.bg to remove the background of the train picture and then used a website called fotor.com to change the background of my image. I moved my image from my phone to my computer. I then put it in the photo remover I used (remove.bg), and removed the original background of the image. I then downloaded the image of the moon in the night sky free from unslash to use as the background of my train image. I went to fotor.com and finally put both of those images together, and kept cropping until it seemed right.
