After I issued the recent challenge to light paint still life subjects I had several people, via email and online posts outside this blog, express that they didn’t know how to use layers and layer masks in Photoshop. While doing so isn’t necessary for participating in the challenge, knowing how can definitely be a big help in creating unique images. I have created a video tutorial to show readers how to use layers and layer masks in the short video linked below. Make sure to view it in full screen mode. Enjoy.


Thank you Dan! It’s a little late for me but I will definitely re-watch this tomorrow or Friday and give it a try!
