Blend Modes and Opacity

Yesterday, these functions in the Layers Palette were somewhat of a mystery, so I tried them out. (This after only just being able to put some layers together that stay together!)

The background "before shot" is a crop of a picture of flowers I took earlier in the summer:

The before of the next layer is of frost on the glass walls of the deck this morning (alas!):



The following results are 1) Color Burn 68% opacity; 2) Color Dodge 48% opacity; 3) Hue 52% opacity. I chose them simply because I liked them.








So, six new things learned yesterday and today - only 887,346, or so, to go!
