This time we'll learn how to mix two different pictures which having a similarity in time - taking and position. Both picture s were taken at night from below.



First, Open the Eiffel tower, hit Ctrl + A (select > All), then Ctrl + C (Edit>Copy).


Second, Open the other one and paste it by Ctrl + V (Edit > paste). if its correct then the tower will be placed on a top most layer. press Ctrl + T for free Transform so you can change the positon and resize it, Hit Enter when you're done.



Third, we're gonna add some mask on Layer1, click Layer1 then click the 'add mask' icon which located at the bottom of Layer's pallet next to 'f' icon. if its correct then a white box will be added on the right side Layer's thumbnail.



Next, fill that mask with a black color, click the white box then press Shift + F5 (Edit>Fill), choose black. if its correct the tower will be disappeared.


Last, to bring the tower back we must paint the mask with a white color, click the mask on the first layer then pick the brush tool , dont forget to set the opacity and hardness to 100%, set the foreground color to white. we will paint it white starts from the top of this picture to the space between their heads. we can also take a look at the mask which showing the map of the selection that we have made.
