Are you a Photoshop beginner?
Are you confused by Photoshop Layers and Masks?
Don’t worry, I was too. Thats why I have created this easy to follow comprehensive tutorial on Layers and Masks for beginners.
What is a Photoshop Layer Mask?
A layer mask is one of the most important tools within photoshop, basically, a layer mask controls where each adjustment layer is applied, its actually very easy, I promise ?
What is an Adjustment Layer?
As you might guess, an adjustment layer is exactly that, a layer that adjusts your photo, there is really no limit to what an adjustment layer can do, wether it be, brighten, darken, add contrast, boost colour it is all done via an adjustment layer.
There is no limit to what you can or can’t do in Adobe Photoshop, if you can imagine it, you can create it!!!
One of the major benefits of using layers and masks in Photoshop is the fact that every edit applied is completely reversible, edit your photo, save the layers, come back at any time and adjust your edit!
If you are a beginner, let me know if this tutorial helped you to understand Layers and Masks once and for all 🙂
