Using the same methods as the previous steps I created the road. I used Free Transform to change the perspective and the Clone Stamp and Healing Brush to better blend the duplicated layers.

Already making the shape of the leaf with the Pen Tool I cut out a portion of the beam. I then used the Warp Tool to better define the leaf and duplicated it to make the different clusters.

Same as before. For the tree I used Liquify to define the branches, and for the grass I used the Warp Tool, and duplicated it, MANY times. All of the coloring is done with Hue and Saturation.
