Reveal All
Software : Photoshop CS2
Level : Beginner

Concept: Another way of masking using "Reveal All" command where we apply masking with vertually no change in the image and then paint with black color to hide the desired portion.

1. Open Photoshop. Open Image to work with "Reveal All" command. Double click and unlock the Background layer. Check out the detail procedure here.

2. Layer > Add Layer Mask > Reveal All

3. Once you click it you will find that foreground and background colors become black & white. And the layer mask thumbnail added to the image layer.

4. Select brush tool. Keep black as a foreground color.

5. Since we want to create vignette effect, start painting around the sides of the image.

6. You will find that the image is as if erased but it's just hidden behind the mask. Painting with white will reveals the image behind the mask.
