Displacement Maps

Image used for displacement map task:

Create new layer and desaturate colours in layer:

Adjust levels of desaturated layer to add more contrast and shadows.

Right click on text layer and click ‘rasterize type’: 

Filter > Distort > Displace

(Colour of image changed to red for the purpose of this task)

Move the sliders to the left to blend the text into the image. 

Different texts will have different effects as the text I used still has an unusual distortion to it therefore thicker texts would work better.
