When you create a selection around something for a layer mask, you either want to show the area that you selected or hide it. If you want to show the area that you select-ed, click on the Add Layer Mask icon at the bottom of the Layers panel. If you would like to hide that selection, press-and-hold the Option (PC: Alt) key when you click on the Add Layer Mask icon.

Corey shares another way to get a cool 3D light beam effect.
Corey finishes up the Olympic-inspired design that he began last week in Part 1.
The Olympic-inspired tutorial will be coming in two parts. Stop by next week for the conclusion to this video.
This week’s tutorial deals with creating masks for complicated images by using channels.
You can create really cool panoramic images with Photomerge. Located under File>Automate, Photomerge has taken great leaps to make your panoramic photos as painless as possible. In some cases, you can shoot holding your camera close, and shoot in a circle. Thanks so much to Dave Cross for the tip, although I’m sure many people will wonder what I am doing spinning in a circle like I’m seven years old. At least I have an excuse.
