Cartoon and Me

In this assignment we were assigned to merge a picture of a person with a cartoon in a realistic background. So what I decided to do was to get a cartoon of a bird and then a picture of me with my hand in the air, so when I merge the picture of me with the bird it looks like I am hanging on to him. Then I choose the background of the sky so it looks like me and the bird are flying in the sky. I think what came out good was the merging the bird and the photo of me together. But I think could improve on is using the selection tool correctly because when I used it on the picture of me I cut out a little of my face when using the selection tool .
