Layer Masks - Part 1

As I mentioned in my last video, I see layers as being about the most powerful tool there is in Photoshop, Elements, and all the good photo editing packages.

Within the topic of layers there are two specific areas that I would define as being the most powerful aspects of layers. These are layer masks and Adjustment layers. In this video, and the next, I will address the former of these, the wonderful layer mask.

Thanks for the great feedback there. Layer masks as so powerful, and so easy .... once you get the hang of them.

Glad I saved your computer, and the poor person it might have landed on ;)

You are a lifesaver! I was looking for this tutorial forever! When I couldn't figure out how to do layer masks on my Photoshop, I nearly threw my computer out the window.

Thank you. You saved me and my poor helpless computer. :)

Well done, clear, everything well explained. Good pace, stays focused on topic and does not use features that he assumes the user already knows about without explanation about what is going on. Thanks for this excellent lesson. You have a gift for instruction.
