The Craft of Adding Image to Image and its Magical Possibilities

Layer properties can be found on the Tools panel. Apart from Masking, there are Properties you can explore when you try to overlay photos:

• Opacity. The Opacity slider enables you to lower or fade the amount or strength of the Layer as a whole. Lowering the opacity of a layer can help refine the blending of the image on the layers and any tools applied without altering the settings of individual tools separately.
• Blend Modes. A blend mode compares the content of two layers and enacts changes based on the content of both layers.
• Horizontal Flip. A transformation feature allows you to mirror a layer horizontally (from left to right).
• Vertical Flip. Enables you to create a mirror layer vertically. It flips the content from top to bottom.Image Mapping. Automated linking of different sections of an image
