Channels and Masks

If you got the basics down and are ready for something a little more challenging, this is your book. Here I help you start working with channels and creating masks. Creating masks is one of the most accurate ways to make a selection and is especially useful in tackling more difficult selections.

Channels and Masks

In this book, I show you different ways of creating a mask, from quick masks to layer masks to channel masks. If you've ever flung your mouse or stylus pen in frustration because you couldn't select the hair on your loved one's photo, you'll be well-served by reading this book and getting up to speed on masking techniques.
