Sourcing your own images

This is tricky.

Not every image you find on the web will open in Photoshop. And lots of them will be really poor quality.

Use Unsplash to source your own images. These will all work and are really high quality images. They're also totally copyright free, which is a bonus.

You can go back to lesson 3 if you need to.
