Hi Everyone,

for some reason when I create a layer mask and use a black color brush on it, there is a small amount of the original image that stays. Please see the image below, the area around the red circle is where you can notice it.

Doesn't look like your foreground color is 100% black.

Either you aren't using black - it's a shade of gray or you are using a soft brush and haven't covered enough of your image. I suggest you use a gradient in you layer mask to fade the effect. Make sure you are using black, 0, 0, 0.
