Layers and Masks


This is my multiple exposure image. I used photoshop and used layers in order to get two pictures merged into one. i decided which picture was going to be the background and which picture was going to be the overlay. i then used the move tool using the tool palette icon then clicked on the overlay image and dragged it on top of the background picture. It appears as layer 1 in the layer box. To make it easier to edit i changed the opacity to a lower scale. i selected layer 1 then clicked layer>layer mask>reveal all. This shows all the overlay image. i then changed the opacity back to 100% to make it easier to worth with. To get rid of parts of the overlay that i don't want i clicked the paint brush tool and painted it. i painted in parts of the picture i wanted so i just clicked x and filled it back in. After finishing i merged the layers so it saved as a jpg.
