Combining images

[şevki ümitö48198405]

Hi Jane,

Thank you for your reply. 

I decided to go thru 1st video tutorial which is "combine images" that you have sent the link/URL to me to see both images at my layer panel.

Suppose I wish to combine moon image into an image of coffee cup image. Sending copy of my layer panel for your information.

If I click on coffee cup image in layer panel, I cannot see cup image on my monitor but I see moon image. Even I click on eye icon of my background image (which is cup) again no change. and I see moon image.

If I click on moon image on the layer, it is moon image  and ok. But if I click on eye icon of moon image, I see image of cup 1214 on my monitor.

Is this because I copied moon image onto my cup image and is this normal and can I go on to combine process as in explained the tutorial video?

I would appreciate if you could  reply to guide me. Because I am eager to edit many photographs as this way.

Thanks

"it is moon image"

Hi Ümit

The issue you are facing is that it's not a "moon image"; it's a "moon image with a solid black background" that you can't see through.

You need to select the moon with any of the selection tools, or you might try Select > Select Subject, then click the Layer Mask button at the bottom of the Layer panel to hide the part that is not selected.
