I started by opening the photo in Photoshop. I chose this picture because it has a a lot unfocused areas that would be perfect to curve. First, I unlocked the background layer by double-clicking on the padlock icon beside the photo thumbnail. Using the Rectangular Marquee Tool, I selected an area in the bottom right corner. I drew a black to white gradient in this selection using the Gradient Tool. I deselected the image, went to Edit>Transform>Warp and drug the selected corner towards the center of the picture. Lastly, I added a drop shadow. The hardest part of the tutorial was warping the photo, because I needed to curve it without messing up other areas of the photograph. The easiest part was adding the drop shadow.
