  • Nice! Thanks! Now the tricky part is how to create a "good" selection on the model.

    @LourceyPhotography, can you show us a trick or two to create a mask based on the silhouette of the model? I think I saw once it was possible to create another layer, they make it b&w and somehow they converted it to a mask..

  • @jzantana No doubt -the selection is always the tricky part.

    Not sure about the silhouette/mask thing.  Never tried that.

  • Fantastic and now I understand it, thank you!

  • @christinedark99 Wonderful! It is a very powerful tool- best of luck.

  • Great job. After 2 hours looking at different videos this is the best!!! Very clear. Thanks.

  • @lufabsantos Glad to hear it helped!
