PHOTOSHOP CC - BEGINNERS GUIDE ON HOW TO USE LAYERS

So you're on the path to take the next big step in your Photoshop skill knowledge and want to explore the concept of making use of layers and layer masks!


By now you should feel comfortable with opening up an image into Adobe Photoshop CC, making a few adjustments, perhaps with the help of a few selection tools, using filters such as blur and sharpening filters, the History Panel and understanding the saving process as well.
