Thanks for watching this video where I show you three easy and powerful ways to blend two images together. We start with the most basic way to blend images, using the Layer Opacity option in the Layers panel. The Opacity option lets us quickly change the transparency level of a layer so the image on the layer below it can show through. From there, we move on to layer blend modes. Blend modes are different ways that layers can interact with each other, and they're especially great for blending a texture with a photo. And finally, we learn how to blend two images seamlessly together using layer masks! Unlike the Opacity option or the blend modes which blend entire layers at once, a layer mask lets us show and hide different parts of the layer, making them perfect for blending images. We'll learn how we can quickly blend two photos together using a layer mask and a simple black-to-white gradient.

Steve, this is my first visit to one of your tutorials, and now I feel like I've cheated myself. This explanation on how to blend images was exceptional, and easy to understand. You even helped clarify the use of layer masks for me which has always been a bit of confusion. Thanks so much!

I HAVE WATCHED MANY TUTORIALS AS A BEGINNER. I HAVE TO SAY YOU ARE THE BEST TEACHER. YOUR INSTRUCTIONS ARE EXTREMELY CLEAR ESPECIALLY FOR SENIOR CITIZENS. THANK YOU.
