Rick I don't understand how you made the brush tool larger, your circle thing. I tried

[EssentialPSElements]

@sweetiepie66ify Just press the Bracket Keys [ ] on your keyboard. They are right next to the letter P. The left Bracket Key makes your Brush smaller and the right Bracket Key makes it larger. If that doesn't work, try re-starting Elements. If it still doesn't work, let me know. Good luck! - Rick

Rick, I find your videos very helpful and hope that you will keep up the good work! You have a wonderful way of helping us to work around photoshop! I have a question. Selection tool, you do selection and when we go 'overboard' we use the option key and click and drag (using Mac). I am having a hard time to get back to selecting after working the 'extras' away. It is these end-off key strokes that is killing me. Thanks for your time!

[EssentialPSElements]

@ohappydeals If I understand correctly, after you clean-up your selection you still have more areas to select on that same image. Then you hold down the Shift Key and click once, and then you can let go of the Shift Key and continue selecting. The Shift Key allows you to add to a Selection. If you're adding on to the area you fixed, start your first click a little inside the Selection and work your way to the edge. Good luck! - Rick

@EssentialPSElements I did check on the layer mask in the panel first. The info at the top of the image states it is my picture title@39.6% (Levels 1, Layer Mask/8). Still cannot get the brush to selectively remove blurring. My brush is set at 60 pixels, mode is in overlay, opacity is 45%.

[EssentialPSElements]

@The2soaringhearts Make sure you click on the thumbnail of the Layer Mask in your Layers Panel before brushing. Let me know if that works. Good luck! - Rick

@EssentialPSElements Rick, thanks very much. I enjoyed the tube. I tried to follow the technique you used for blurring and then selectively deblurring. I can't make it work. I created a background layer and a mask. Selected a brush, ensured my color was black and tried removing the blur without success. Am I missing a step?

Photoshop Elements is for editing photos. But Adobe makes another product called Premiere Elements which is for video. - Rick
