Some of the ways that I made my illusions project look professional, convincing, and believable, was after I chose the animals I was going to morph, I chose photos of those animals from the same perspective. So for my flamingo and peacock illusion I decided two photos where it was a side perspective of both animals. So then it would morph together better and look more realistic. I also used the remove background tool, to remove the background of one of the animals, which helped to look more convincing. Also using the generative fill just to make some of the lines look smoother and more professional.
