Selections
allow you to isolate, manipulate, and modify a
limited portion
of an image.
Chapter Ten is dedicated to
Selections
.
Layer Masks
provide a way to limit what is visible on a layer without actually modifying the
original image data. They are closely related to
Selections
but allow for refinement. They
can be thought of as editable selections.
Layer Masks
will be discussed at length in Chapter
Eleven.
We will be covering a lot of topics in this chapter. Don't worry about remembering every
detail in this chapter. We will be visiting these topics again in later chapters and using them
in the examples that follow.
