You may have seen caricatures in the way of "big heads" in newspapers. With Photoshop, you can do that easily by following these steps:

- Open a "victim" image, then separate the image from the background in many ways.Here I use the Polygonal Lasso Tool to draw and select the object, press Ctrl + Shift + I then press Delete to delete the background.

- Select the Magnetic Lasso Tool and make a selection around the top of the object (Figure 1).

- Press Ctrl + J to duplicate the head.In your Layers Palette, there are two layers: 1 is the head and 2 is the body (Figure 2).
